I dont know the english name but in Latin it is Martes Martes and if I would try a translation it would be Forest Martin?

You are the first person I have meet that made a mount of a badger [Big Grin]

I think it's great and not very common in Sweden

Who made the monuts?
Don't be shy [Eek!]

I am very found of these two mounts and they are made by Borgs Konservatorfirma i Svenljunga, a fairly exotic place for all non swedes.

Christer,
A friend of mine went to Svenljunga and told me that the only positive about the place was that a "raggare" who throw an empty bottle at him missed! :-)

Glad your friend liked Svenljunga [Big Grin]

Since this summer I cant speak bad about it because my wife works there.
