GREATER KUDU SKULL
Tragelaphus strepsiceros strepsiceros
This magnificent large spiral-horned Antelope is one of the most coveted trophies of the South African Bush. Its beautiful spiraling horns wave through the brush as the Kudu lopes its way into the shadows with ivory horn tips disappearing into the hunters dreams. This specimen is in mint condition with horns measuring 48 3/8 x 48 inches long around the spirals, with thick bases measuring 10¼ x 10 3/8 inches around. Mounted on a wood panel for wall hanging, it measures 46 inches high x 27 inches wide, and stands out from the wall 17 7/8 inches.
