What did you do with your hippo skull?

I haven’t shot one but this upped my interest in doing so.

I just did a regular euro mount. Don’t have it in hand yet. Should be shipping soon. Once I get it, I will post up some pictures.
 
Dang! That really gives more perspective of what damage they can release on a person.

Simple presentation. The oak base is 2.5 inches thick and was made by a friend.
 
Hi all - Just seeking ideas for a hippo skull. Any ideas?
I've just kept the tushes (teeth) but never the skull. It would make a great conversation piece. Maybe the next time I am forced to shoot one for bait I'll bring one home.
 
This is the last I saw of my last one that went MISSING then supposedly got destroyed ?

Next to it is a true Monster Bull, I must check where it went !

Breaks my heart as I collect skulls & something keeps happening to keep me from getting one home, even lost a Elephant Skull I had lined up, but it was the paperwork holding that up (and cost of shipping)
 
I put the teeth from one of my hippos on a plaque and gave them to my dentist. He got a kick out of the gift. I think….

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?

I am possibly going to book with him soon.
Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
To much to political shit, to little Africa :-)
Spending a few years hunting out west then back to Africa!

Hello. If you haven't already sold this rifle then I will purchase. Please advise. Thank you.
