SOUTHERN NYALA SHOULDER MOUNT
Tragelaphus angasii
The Southern Nyala is a medium-sized antelope of striking appearance; with a white chevron on the forehead, stripes on his side, long shaggy tail, beard, and a dark mane - everything the animal needs to be stunningly beautiful. In addition this South African antelope has wonderful spiraling thick black horns with lovely ivory tips. This one is a mature Bull with horns measuring 27 1/8 x 26¾ inches long around the spirals and bases that are 8½ inches around each horn. From the bottom of the brisket to the tip of the horns it measures 39½ inches, projects 26¾ inches from the wall to the nose and is 18¼ inches in width. The taxidermy quality is well above average with a majestically regal expression on the face.
