Like it says above - I would like a hoggie headskin to mount my hog deer from ten or so years ago. Theres a whole , convoluted tale as to why I wasnt able to keep the original headskin , but now I would like to mount the head properly.

Any suggestions as to where to look ? I have asked on a couple of aussie taxidermy Facebook pages but to no avail.

Probably rare as rocking horse shit Muzza. Best chance perhaps would be get one from the states. You could ask on Taxidermy net. OR perhaps an outfitter in South Africa who has them on their property.

You best bet is a hog deer breeder in Australia or a taxidermist I know in Melbourne. There are loads of them behind wire in Victoria. Shoot me an email muzza and I will send you some contacts. One guy is only contactable by phone though - but he is likely your best bet. office at huntaust.com.au

Do you still need one Muzza, a mate of mine had one with a Taxidermist down south & I could ask about it for you ?

My taxidermist here thinks he can source one. I am waiting to hear back from him , so I may still need one.

Thanks to those who have offered suggestions
