this was certainly not shot 2017, but this is one of the dusky moose hanging out at my wife's uncle's house

Wow that's a bit of history right there, wasn't there only four bulls ever shot here? Do you know the story to it?

three bulls shot, two by my wife's great grandfather Eddie Herrick. all the family have left is that bull moose and an absolute donkey wapiti (and a few African heads). he shot a pair of waps right beside each other and i'd love to know where these are now and get them reunited... i think quite a few heads were gifted to Lindisfarne College which was his old homestead before it was a school and maybe Hastings deerstalkers
i've read his old diaries and checked out all the maps which her gran still has. quite cool stuff.
sorry for the diversion off topic
