Did not when I first tried but works now. Neat picture.

LOL, last April, I went to the UP of Michigan to film some wild boar
hunting. While I was there, the owner of Hog Wild asked me if I saw a
four-horned Jacob's Sheep running around with only three horns, would I
please shoot it? With one horn broken off, none of his hunters wanted to
shoot it, so without any "trophy value" he'd rather see me shoot it and
have some fun hunting it. Of course, I said 'Sure!"

As luck would have it, while we were doing a stalk on some boars, we ran
into a small flock of mixed exotic rams, one of them only carrying three
horns. I got lucky and put an arrow through him and down he went. While
it doesn't have the Jacob's Ram's four horns, it was still a striking
looking animal, but not perhaps one that I would have a shoulder mount
made. But I am pleased with the animal, and decided that I'd have the
skull beetle cleaned and as such, needed to get the cape off to allow the
beetles ready access to the meat of the skull.

Well, over the years, I've caped numerous whitetail deer, black bears,
wild boars, elk, caribou, Corsican rams, bison and other assorted
critters. Never in my life have I encountered an animal that was such a
bugger to cape out.

So what about making a taxidermist cry? Well, it's pretty simple. Go to
the UP of Michigan, book a Jacob's Sheep hunt and whack one. Then tell
your taxidermist you want a shoulder mount done. I guarantee that by the
time he's done, he'll be weeping with frustration!

Good greif!

One of the things Ilike about lurking here and infrequently posting is
that I learn so much. I never even heard of such a thing as a Jacob's
sheep, let alone multi-horned animals, and I live in a country known
for its sheep!

What bizzare looking animal:

I am still trying to figure out if this is a hoax!


And I want one so bad!
