here you go- sable cape FOR SALE- it sounds a bit risky based on age of it. Like seller says experienced guy could pull it off. i have mounted capes that were 10 yrs old- they have dry rot tendencies and can tear easily if not handled correctly http://www.taxidermy.net/forum/index.php/topic,345324.msg2346956.html#msg2346956

Totally confused and new to exotics...is the original coat not usable on these animals? Not sure why shooter was encouraged to buy a cape when it was a live kill.
Or is a cape needed to make the mount better?
Original poster...why was the cheek missing? Animals feeding on it before you found it?
Thanks all!

An amazing story! I'm just hoping for a free range axis next month!

Thanks all! Animal was recovered a couple days later and the hide was bad by that time.
