I was boiling two of my bowkills from this year when I remember that my taxidermist told me when he skinned out my buck that it had two top front teeth. He said he has done hundreds of deer and never has seen this before. You guys ever seen this? Looks like ivory on an elkā€¦

Another...

that is a dracula buck

every elk has 2 top ivory teeth so yes i've seen it before if thats what your talkin bout circle what your talkin about in photo.

There was a thread over on ArcheryTalk recently about this. It isn't as rare we you might think.

It's caused from a recessive gene from hundreds of years ago... or something like that.

There was a mount like that at the Illinois Deer and Turkey Classic a couple of years back with some sort of description.
If I remember correctly, it was something like 1 in 10,000 deer have those "canine" teeth and that it is either an evolution of the species or a genetic flashback. Either way, its a fairly common mutation.

oh that is rare I thought that monster was a elk! !!!!

This is a Whitetail...

Haha, yeah...

new one on me, i take it your doing a euro mount, If yes then that is going to be a cool conversation piece.
