Description
This professional taxidermy shoulder mount features a mature Mule Deer buck (Odocoileus hemionus) presented in a slight right-turn pose. The specimen displays a typical dichotomous forked antler configuration with four points on each side, representing an 8-point rack by Western count. The antlers show natural coloration and texture with visible pearling at the bases. Physical characteristics include the species-typical large ears, white muzzle, and dark forehead markings. The pelage is composed of natural gray and brown fur. No maker labels, taxidermist marks, or harvest tags are visible on the specimen.
Condition report:
The mount is in good condition for display. The fur is well-preserved with no evident shedding or signs of pest infestation. The ears show minor age-related wear, including slight thinning and fraying along the edges. The nose leather exhibits minor surface cracking typical of older taxidermy, and the artificial eyes are securely set.
