lilrabbitssong: the-far-lands: theoldbone: theoldbone: Three-time World Taxidermy Champion Ken Walker recreating an extinct Irish elk using DNA studies and Paleolithic cave paintings for reference. Apparently this took 4 elk hides to make! A book recommended by fieryflyingpanda (thanks!) that talks about this mount and others done by Ken Walker: http://www.amazon.com/Still-Life-Adventures-Melissa-Milgrom/dp/B005DI9QK4 Totally just bought it for 4 bucks, and that’s including shipping! Maybe they’ll have info on the smilodon that he did too! I’ll let you guys know! Since everyone seems so interested in prehistoric recreations, here’s a few more!
