Common Hippopotamus Skull #01019

This is the skull of a common hippopotamus!

(This is a courtesy listing for a friend!)
The famous common hippopotamus is a huge semi-aquatic artiodactyl native to sub-Saharan Africa. It is a popular fixture in zoos around the world, and its impressive skulls are highly sought-after in collections.
This is an excellent large adult example from an old US collection. It measures an impressive 28 1/2 inches long and has a fantastic set of teeth – the tusks are all original! It does have minor damage and putty around the bases of some tusks and teeth, but it is a great example overall and certainly nicer than most. Please review all pictures and description for condition.
This specimen is not from an ESA-listed population and is legal to sell and possess. However, hippo parts are restricted in some states, so please know your local laws before inquiring. US sales only, sorry!
The buyer is responsible for the shipping cost of this oversized item.
