Klipspringer question

Submitted by Bill on 8/3/01. ( slipclan@futureone.com ) 205.188.209.133

I've heard that the Klipspringer has hollow, very brittle loose hair. What kind of nightmare is tanning and mounting one of the little fellows? I've seen them mounted, but I couldn't find anybody addressing it in these forums. Thanks for any input.

on the mounting, Iv'e always had them proffessionaly tanned. If they can do it so can you. The hair seems to be fuller and more "like" a small Porqupine quill, but isn't really. I never noticed any brittleness or loosness.


not a problem

Most antelope have hollow hair. Different degrees of courseness.
You won't have any trouble with it.

Klipspringers walk like they are on their tippie toes. McKenzie sells
a good book on South African game....
