Stolen elk antlers and skull returned to owner Taylor Gyllenberg got an early Christmas present when the elk antlers and skull from her trophy bull were returned to her by the Baker City Police Department last week. The elk, which Gyllenberg killed on Oct. 27 in the Sumpter Unit in Oregon, was supposed to become a European mountl, according to the Baker City Herald. However, the memento from her first bull elk never made it to her wall. Instead, after Gyllenberg and her boyfriend prepped the skull and antlers over several hours, she discovered that someone stole the trophy right from the yard of her boyfriend’s home in Baker City on Nov. 18. “I don’t see how someone could take something that they didn’t work on themselves,” said Gyllenberg. “I just think it’s sickening to know that someone could ever take something they didn’t even work to get.” Gyllenberg’s friends gathered together to offer a $750 reward for return of the skull and antlers; however, Gyllenberg didn’t hold out muchPost: 3 January 12:39
What an amazing discovery!!🤩 This pilot was flying around a remote area of Alaska and noticed a Walrus skull! He caught glimpse of the solid ivory tusks and had to get a closer look! Upon further inspection, the pilot noticed the ivory tusks and ivory teeth were still in tact, but did not see a walrus carcass nearby. This Walrus skull and ivory tusks measured to be 26”. What an Alaskan experience!🤩 #alaskalife #alaska #discoverearth #natgeo #walrus #ivoryPost: 28 August 09:24

Find a Deadhead Buck? Keep it Legal To you thousands of COVID-19 newbies that have joined our ranks to hunt deer in the fall and shed antlers in the spring, here is something you’ll find interesting. A “deadhead” is the commonly used term for a buck deer carcass that you might stumble across in the woods, with antlers still attached to the skull. Generally, such a buck has been dead for several months or even a year or two, and the carcass has been ravaged by time, weather, and predators. All that might remain are a grisly skull with antlers, a portion of the spine, and maybe some rib bones wrapped tautly with pieces of hide as black as used motor oil. If the skull has been lying on the ground for more than a few months, you might see teeth marks on the antlers where squirrels and mice have gnawed them. Rodents are attracted to the minerals in antlers, and they also chew them to wear down their ever-growing teeth. The longer a deadhead rots on the ground, the more squirrels will carvePost: 9 June 09:24
The odd one out. A Phoenix Park Fallow Buck with a deformed antler, this can happen due to several reasons but typically due to damage to soft growing antlers or pedicle damage, the area on the skull where antlers are cast or grown each year. Post: 12 April 10:01
Antlers are extensions of an animal's skull found in members of the Cervidae (deer) family. Antlers are a single structure composed of bone, cartilage, fibrous tissue, skin, nerves, and blood vessels. They are generally found only on males, with the exception of reindeer/caribou.Post: 6 February 11:01

🌿Wendigo🌿 This piece was a custom commission requested by a client. A wendigo is a mythical creature that lurks in the forest preying on victims to turn cannibalistic. I portrayed a softer version using a whitetail deer mount, whitetail deer skull, faux moss and foliage, faux Venus Fly traps, and real preserved Emperor Scorpions. My inspiration for this piece came from the movie “Annihilation”, images online of Wendigo art depictions, and the lovely artist Dark Fern Creations that creates similar pieces 🌿✨Post: 17 May 09:36
This photo of caribou on the autumn tundra while losing their antler velvet was taken on Canada's Far North. During the autumn period that begins in late August, the caribou bulls start to shed their antler velvet. During this period the antlers are tinged red from the shedding process, and is called 'hanging bloody'. By mid-September, just before the mating period, the antlers are usually velvet free and sun-bleached white again. Post: 17 October 11:22
Horns? Or feathers? The great horned owl gets its name from the tufts of feathers on its head that look like ears. But the owl's ears are really farther down on the side of its head, and are just openings in the skull hidden beneath feathers. Its large eyes let it see in almost complete darkness, and if there is no light at all, its excellent hearing helps it hunt by sound. Owls are stealth hunters; they can easily sneak up on their prey since their fluffy feathers give them almost silent flight. When it finds prey, it dives and snatches it with its long, sharp talons. Great horned owls are very strong and can carry animals several times heavier than themselves! Post: 4 October 18:18
Wolf Hunting in Belarus: Complete Guide to Seasons, Methods, Permits, and Prices Wolf hunting in Belarus is not just a tradition — it’s a necessity. With a stable and widespread population of Canis lupus across the country, regulated hunting plays a key role in managing predator pressure on deer, elk, and livestock. This guide delivers verified, no-nonsense information for hunters seeking to pursue wolves in Belarus: from legal requirements and hunting methods to regional hotspots, costs, and trophy handling. --- Why Hunt Wolves in Belarus? • Population Control: Wolves are apex predators. Without regulation, they can decimate local ungulate populations and cause significant damage to livestock. • Challenge: Wolves are intelligent, elusive, and highly adaptive. Hunting them requires advanced skills, patience, and strategy. • Trophy Value: A Belarusian wolf pelt or skull is a respected trophy, symbolizing mastery over one of Europe’s most cunning predators. --- Wolf Population and Post: 9 March 00:01
Fox Foxes are small to medium-sized, omnivorous mammals belonging to several genera of the family Canidae. They have a flattened skull, upright, triangular ears, a pointed, slightly upturned snout, and a long bushy tail (or brush). Twelve species belong to the monophyletic "true foxes" group of genus Vulpes. Approximately another 25 current or extinct species are always or sometimes called foxes; these foxes are either part of the paraphyletic group of the South American foxes, or of the outlying group, which consists of the bat-eared fox, gray fox, and island fox. Foxes live on every continent except Antarctica. The most common and widespread species of fox is the red fox (Vulpes vulpes) with about 47 recognized subspecies. The global distribution of foxes, together with their widespread reputation for cunning, has contributed to their prominence in popular culture and folklore in many societies around the world.

How many crocodile teeth? What is special about crocodile teeth? How strong is a crocodile bite? The teeth of the crocodiles order are remarkable (and they are placed in a reinforced skull with the most powerful biting muscles). Do crocodiles lose their teeth with age? Extant crocodiles are polyphiodonts, that is, their teeth are continually replaced during a large part of their life. Firstly, each tooth is renewed in 1-2 years (their teeth are hollow inside, and brand-new and sharp teeth develop in these cavities as they wear out). Secondly, unlike most reptiles, crocodiles have a peculiar differentiation of teeth in size, shape, and even function. At the beginning of each jaw, there are four large canine teeth that serve to effectively capture prey. In the middle of the jaw, the teeth are thicker, increase in length more evenly and form a kind of scissor bite that allows you to cut the fillets of the deceased corpse of the captured victim. At the base of the jaw, the teeth expaPost: 25 March 04:02
The Grizzly Bear Chair is a gift from hunter Seth Kinman to President Andrew Johnson. 1865, USA Seth Kinman (September 29, 1815 – February 24, 1888) was an early settler of Humboldt County, California, a hunter based in Fort Humboldt, a famous chair maker, and a nationally recognized entertainer. He stood over 6 ft (1.83 m) tall and was known for his hunting prowess and his brutality toward bears and Indian warriors. Kinman claimed to have shot a total of over 800 grizzly bears, and, in a single month, over 50 elk. He was also a hotel keeper, saloon keeper, and a musician who performed for President Lincoln on a fiddle made from the skull of a mule. The Grizzly Bear Chair is a unique chair presented to Andrew Johnson, the 17th President of the United States, in 1865. It was made of bear skin and decorated in a style popular at the time. The chair became a symbol of Johnson's personal preferences and reflected his connection with nature and the frontier spirit. The armchair not only sPost: 29 November 01:32
🇺🇸 An epic hunt that gave us the opportunity to explore some incredible and untouched areas, where we found not only plenty of Marals, but an adventure like no other. Not every day one gets the privilege of hunting on these beautiful mountains surrounded by wolves, bears, ibex, and wild boars amongst other creatures. This majestic and huge bull was spotted on our first hunting day, and from that moment we knew he was the one we wanted, which somehow, made our adventure even more special. Trophy aside, the way this Maral patrolled his area was a clear sign of dominance and no other bull dared to confront him during the 3 days we tried to cut distance with him. Regarding the trophy, the weight of the antlers -despite having to wait for the skull to dry out completely, where the expected weight loss could be up to 2 kg- proves this will clearly be the biggest Maral harvested in the area this year. Luck is an important factor, but without attitude and resilience, none of this would have Post: 25 September 09:07
The wild boar (Sus scrofa), also known as the wild swine, common wild pig, Eurasian wild pig, or simply wild pig, is a suid native to much of Eurasia and North Africa, and has been introduced to the Americas and Oceania. The species is now one of the widest-ranging mammals in the world, as well as the most widespread suiform. It has been assessed as least concern on the IUCN Red List due to its wide range, high numbers, and adaptability to a diversity of habitats. It has become an invasive species in part of its introduced range. Wild boars probably originated in Southeast Asia during the Early Pleistocene and outcompeted other suid species as they spread throughout the Old World As of 1990, up to 16 subspecies are recognized, which are divided into four regional groupings based on skull height and lacrimal bone length.The species lives in matriarchal societies consisting of interrelated females and their young (both male and female). Fully grown males are usually solitary outside thePost: 28 September 20:08
Soldiers of the elite guard unit of the Iranian Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi in a leopard skin uniform, 1960, Tehran. Persian leopards are one of the largest subspecies of leopards in the world. Their body length ranges from 126 to 183 cm, and their tail is 94-116 cm long. The skull is 20-25 cm long in males and 20-22 cm in females. The upper teeth of males reach a length of 68-75 mm, in females they are 64-67 mm. The height of the animal is approximately 76 cm, the average weight reaches 70 kg. In general, it is a very cautious and secretive animal. A leopard usually tries to hide, but when defending itself, it can even attack humans. He chooses gorges with streams or dense thickets as shelters. In deciduous forests, it can climb high into trees. It is not afraid of frosts and heat, but the predator usually stays far from reservoirs. The distribution range of this subspecies is quite wide, starting from the Main Caucasian Ridge and continuing to the Red Sea, and from the Bosphorus ChPost: 9 January 23:17

The Arctic wolf (Canis lupus arctos), also known as the white wolf or polar wolf, is a subspecies of grey wolf native to the High Arctic tundra of Canada's Queen Elizabeth Islands, from Melville Island to Ellesmere Island. Unlike some populations that move between tundra and forest regions, Arctic wolves spend their entire lives north of the northern treeline. Their distribution to south is limited to the northern fringes of the Middle Arctic tundra on the southern half of Prince of Wales and Somerset Islands. It is a medium-sized subspecies, distinguished from the northwestern wolf by its smaller size, its whiter colouration, its narrower braincase, and larger carnassials. Since 1930, there has been a progressive reduction in size in Arctic wolf skulls, which is likely the result of wolf-dog hybridization.Post: 30 May 18:33
Men jeg har oplevet mere underholdende ting. Engang havde jeg været på jagt hele dagen, og om aftenen kom jeg til en stor sø i en dyb skov, som vrimlede med vildænder. Jeg havde aldrig set så mange ænder i mit liv! Desværre havde jeg ikke en eneste kugle tilbage. Jeg ventede et stort selskab af venner denne aften, og jeg ville gerne byde dem på noget vildt. Jeg er en gæstfri og generøs mand. Mine frokoster og middage var berømte over hele Sankt Petersborg. Hvordan skulle jeg kunne vende hjem uden ænder? I lang tid stod jeg i ubeslutsomhed, og pludselig kom jeg i tanke om, at jeg havde et stykke spæk i min jagttaske. Jubii! Dette spæk vil være den perfekte lokkedue. Jeg tog det op af tasken, bandt det hurtigt fast til en lang og tynd snor og kastede det ud i vandet. Da ænderne ser maden, svømmer de straks op til spækket. En af dem sluger det grådigt. Men fedtet er glat, og da det hurtigt passerer gennem anden, dukker det op bag den! På den måde ender anden på mit reb.Post: 12 July 16:29
