Now that is a cool mount.

nice little tusker... how big are those molars?

12 1/2 inches.

Holy [bleep], this is nice

Great wart hog, I love the base, congrats!

Base is mesquite and the panels in the drawers I had left blank inserts when it was built. I took them out and used 2 pieces of blesbok back hide to cover them .
Turned out pretty good .

The mesquite matches the bar .

Cool mount!

Uh, not molars but rather canine teeth.

Super cool mount!

Neat mount!

Nice. I await mine.

Nice!

That sure is a pig of a hog, errr, warthog.....

That is one nice warthog!

Fantastic photo and real nice W-hog. Having never been to Africa, how do they cook up? Do they taste like pork?

Did not have the opportunity this trip , but I beleive some camps eat them but I would imagine like we do the wild hogs,, mostly the younger variety .

Chicken, they taste like chicken.

The big old boars have tough meat and we drive over the back straps with a tractor about five times. Then we marinade it in lemon juice for a couple days, put it on the grid and use it as staff rations the following day.

I usually have someone shoot us a young porker that goes on a spit braai. Now that's some good eating right there but I cannot pinpoint the taste to pork alone. Somewhere between pork, chicken and beef. Really good though.

Thanks PK, made me laugh :-)

I'd go back just to hunt them, Here is my last one with great bottoms

Here is another one ( Not Mine ) quite a pig.
