Hi all - Just seeking ideas for a hippo skull. Any ideas?
World's most popular community & resource for hunting in Africa since 2007
What did you do with your hippo skull?

I've just kept the tushes (teeth) but never the skull. It would make a great conversation piece. Maybe the next time I am forced to shoot one for bait I'll bring one home.

This is the last I saw of my last one that went MISSING then supposedly got destroyed ?
Next to it is a true Monster Bull, I must check where it went !
Breaks my heart as I collect skulls & something keeps happening to keep me from getting one home, even lost a Elephant Skull I had lined up, but it was the paperwork holding that up (and cost of shipping)

I put the teeth from one of my hippos on a plaque and gave them to my dentist. He got a kick out of the gift. I think….

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
