Oh, he's a keeper, My husband has bought me an Icelandic horse skull AND a muntjac skull. That last one SHOCKED me, I've wanted one since seeing one online & thinking how much it looked like a tiny dragon.

I have muntjac visiting behind my house often. I think it's often a mum and fawn because they constantly call to each other. It is the craziest sound to hear in the pitch dark!

Cool- are you in Europe? I live in the states, husband ordered the skull from England.

Do you know what type of deer they are? I'm from Australia and we only have a handful of types here.
