    It's only one side of the deer thats mounted as opposed to a square shoulder mount.

    I think I've decided though after chatting to a few other fellas, I'm going to get a base made up of either redgum or buloke, order in some habitat and have him done as a floor pedestal similar to this

    I know what ya mean, I reckon when I eventually take a tahr with a good mane he'll be a wall pedestal for sure

    Cheers eebees, haha you were close! it's Chital, but your phonetically correct which is better than most people in Australia. I think they were spelt cheetal back in British India. He's actually my brothers, I can't seem to find a pic of mine so I'll have to take another
