    We gave this to a friend, we prefer a nice bit of red deer for steak. Sambar is ok for small goods. I know a few people that like it for steak etc but we don't. Yes he certainly is a beautiful stag the characteristics of this stag are similar to PD but we know it's a different one as the nicks out of his ears don't match with PD. This stag turned up three days befor I got him and we have never seen him before. Strange how they just turn up.

    Yes I would love to have all my heads on the wall but I would need a lot bigger/ no ceiling type house to fit them in.

    They are very strong animals , I suppose that comes from there homelands where tigers hunt them all the time.

    You can see the similarity of PD and the one I got, but in the top picture you can see the nicks out of the top of his left ear, mine had a nick out of the bottom of his ear nothing out of the top.
