Cuvier's Gazelle

Where can you buy a lifesize form for a Cuvier's gazelle? Are there any companies that specdialize in endangered forms?

If you check your measurments, I believe you can use a Thompsons gazelle form on them. You may have to do some slight alterations, but it should be close. Bob C


Cuvier?

The gazella are split about as fine as frog hair. There are numerous species named after some one's first cousin or a local tree, but there are only about a dozen recognized species. The only Cuvier's i am familar with is the Gazella cuvieri which is also called the Edmi or Atlas gazelle. This animal is extremely rare and is confined to the mountains of Morocco, Algeria and Tunisa and a few zoos and parks.

This mammal is larger than a Tompson's, Loder's or Dorca's (See, all somebody's cousin....LOL). the Culvier's has a rough and thick coat and is dark fawn in color. I would think a springbok would come closer to a fit. I know of no company that specializes in endangered species forms......I am afraid that due to limited demand, the company itself would be also be endangered. Any competent taxidermist should be able to alter a form to fit, even a Thompson's, although I think there is several inches differenct in shoulder height and 10-20 kgs in weight differential.


Whatever

Poachers these days are really mean, so when you see one you need to call it, to people. Things get really bad sometimes, and animals go extinct because of these cowardly acts. SO GET TO IT! And move to Tennessee!
