I would like to see some pictures of a warthog tusk pedestal desk mount or something similar. It would be easier to send a picture to the Taxidermy shop in SA than trying to explain it on the phone. Did a search with no luck. Thanks, smoker1

I just did the traditional plaque, the same way they do wild boar in Europe. Mine was done in South Africa by LifeForm.

Also a very nice mount Wink. Maybe closer to what I will do. Umlindi Taxidermy in South Africa near East London. Thanks for your help, Phil

Smoker; I've done a few on free standing wood pyramid one sits on a table in photo at this link (it is flat topped vs full pyramid).

I can send you some photos of others via e-mail or try to get one up on the sight for link if you want.

I also need to do something with my warthog, but still have not made a decision. Liked the Lifeform. Will take the tusks on my next trip to South Africa as well as the skull.
Thank you for the help.
