The kob is an antelope found across Central Africa and parts of West Africa and East
Africa. Together with the closely related reedbucks, waterbucks, lechwe, Nile lechwe, and
puku, it forms the Reduncinae tribe.
Thorough preparation is the key factor to ensuring a high-quality final product. All hides are tanned and oiled using the world’s very best available chemicals and processes to ensure permanence and longevity.Forms are selected to ensure the best fit and posture will be altered to suit you, the client’s preference without additional cost. Natural habitat bases are custom-made for full mount trophies without additional cost.Only the finest materials and 30 years of professional experience are used in defining your trophies in a whole new way. The final trophies are almost Life-Formed. When the restoration is required, every effort is made to repair cuts and abrasions, and to minimise bullet damage. Natural scarring is kept unless otherwise requested.
Habitat
Habitat: Kobs prefer habitats in close proximity to water. Some of the different ecosystems
that they inhabit include floodplains, woodland edges, savanna and grassland. They avoid
areas with dense tree cover, like woodlands and forests.
