Here are two of the Tiny Ten antelopes I took in the southern Cape of SA, finally back from the taxidermist. Hides emerged from tanning in great shape, thanks to the great care my PH took of them immediately after the kills.
Klipspringer is on its tiptoes, properly. My favorite of all I hunted, due to the difficult terrain they are found in.

I’d definitely like to hear more about hunting these animals. Anyone have any good write ups or links they care to share?

alibi,

Here's a link to an article by Craig Boddington, in Hunt Forever- good summary of the animals, how to hunt them, etc.

I have a tasteful way that I mounted mine. If someone will PM me, I'll email you my full body klippy and my shoulder mounts to post. My taxidermist really liked my shoulder mount display and is stealing the idea. (previous taxidermist retired)

I did a full-body mount on the little Suni I took in Mozambique.

Would love to see these, but I'm not proficient in posting pics.


Do or do not, there is no try.
