Item Details

Description

**Originally Listed At $300**

South Africa, 20th century CE. A pair of inner horn core bones from a kudu, a large antelope species of eastern and southern African savanna and scrublands. Only males sport these iconic corkscrew horns and they lock horns with other males as shows of dominance, and if threatened they can use the base of the horns to ram a predator. There are 2 species of kudu- the Lesser and Greater. Size: 22" L x 1.75" W (55.9 cm x 4.4 cm); smaller: 17.5" L x 1.75" W (44.4 cm x 4.4 cm)
