I remember that Scribe. Bloody unusual looking head. I think we hypothesised that it was likely the result of an injury while in velvet as a spiker.

Welcome young fellas. About time you found us. Must have had a point in the right direction from an old bugger.

No but I can be talked into it. The owner of the head above sometime knows where a few are and a sambar or two as well.
I never got excited about hunting these two species as I would rather buy an old horse off a farmer and eat that.
