This black wildebeest (Connochaetes gnou) shoulder mount is distinguished by heavy horns that sweep forward before curling upward, an upright facial crest, and a bristly muzzle. Coarse dark-brown and black hair emphasizes the species' rugged head and neck profile. Native to the open grasslands of southern Africa, black wildebeest survived a severe historical population decline and were reestablished through protected herds and conservation on reserves and private land. The wooden backing panel has a flush-mounted metal keyhole hanger secured with three screws. The mount measures approximately 14" x 28" x 33" tall. Note Regarding Shipping Services: This item is exceptionally large and/or heavy, and may require custom boxing or crating depending on the intended destination and available carrier services.
