I was wondering in terms of shoulder mounts can one tell the difference between a Hartmans Zebra and a Burchells Zebra? Thank you, Jim | ||

If the Hartman's is done correctly it will have a small dewlap while the Burchell's will not...

There are different facial color patterns and the Hartmann's ears are largeramongst other things. Jerry Huffaker State, National and World Champion Taxidermist | |||

Hartmanns have as Jerry stated larger ears, the face pattern is lighter sometimes even gold around the muzzle, Hartmanns have thinner white stripes , and those stripes are whiter with out any shadow in the white area and they have an adams apple. The differences go on and on.... | |||

Bwanamrm, Jerry and Artistry of Wildlife, thank you for your replys. I heard they look the same in a shoulder mount but I guess it is in the details. Thanks again, Jim | |||

I know what you mean with so often seeing no difference between the Hartmann's and the Burchell's on a shoulder / wall mount, that's why I always encourage hunters to take pictures of the head and neck showing the dewlap. Get a Taxidermist that has experience with African animals such as the guys that posted here.

Damn if I ever shoot another Hartman's forget a rug, I am doing a pedestal! Nice!
