Roebuck Mammal skull - Capreolus capreolus - 20 cm - 15 cm - 10 cm- Non-CITES species - (5)

5 beautiful roe deer skulls, 2 of which are mounted on a lovely, uniquely carved trophy plaque

They are very easy to mount on the wall.

5 beautiful, different little skulls in various colors.

Not all jaw pieces are included; see photo.

Despite this, they are very beautiful objects to hang in your interior or mancave.

The roe deer has a sandy yellow to reddish-brown summer coat; in winter, it is more gray-brown to black. Adult animals have no spots. The white to yellowish rump patch is clearly visible. In males, this patch is quite indistinct in summer. The nose is black and the chin is white. The tail is quite small (two to four centimeters long) and is only visible when defecating. In winter, a tuft of white hair between the hind legs of the female roe deer, the doe, sticks out backwards; this is called the “apron.” It looks like a tail, but it is not.
The adult male, the roe buck, has simple antlers, usually with two to three points (tines). Roe bucks with four to five points are exceptions. The antlers are usually about 25 centimeters long. A new set of antlers grows each year between October and January, so the old antlers fall off. The antlers grow beneath a velvet skin, which loosens and is rubbed off once they have fully grown between March and June. On rare occasions, female roe deer also grow antlers.

When the antlers have no branches yet, the roe buck or its antlers are called a “spiker.” A fork has one branch; this is common at around two years of age. The number of branches is not an indication of age: even a one-year-old roe buck, a yearling, can already have forked antlers or antlers with six points.

As this is a real, natural skull, it may have a few minimal cracks and splits...
in both the skull and the antlers!
Teeth or molars may also be loose and/or fall out.
This is normal. Please refer to the photos.

The object will be carefully packaged and shipped.
