Personal collection - other non-equine ungulates
All remaining non-equine ungulate models.
Lineol American elk (Alces alces), a graceful German sculpture from the 30's, expertly restored and repainted by Aleksander Freda of Dark Pegasus Studio to a bull preparing for rut. This model was a very generous surprise gift from Aleksander - both of whom, the chap and the model, I can now blame for my infatuation with Lineol sculptures.

With the sculptor's kind permission, my copy was sculpted an entirely new tail by Aleksander Freda of Dark Pegasus Studio; I repositioned the nasal horn. Aleksander also instructed me on how to achieve the colour I wanted on the model, and took some of the pictures shown. Thank you Sasha! The model's colouration was done after details seen in the remaining cave paintings and discovered remains of this extinct Pleistocene species. |

Pronghorns are a North American ruminant with various physical adaptations to high speeds, such as a particularly large windpipe and lungs; no lateral digits in the legs; lightweight bones; and highly cushioned hooves. They seem to have up to 13 different gaits and can reach velocities of nearly 90km/h, which they are able to keep up over remarkably long distances. They can loose parts of their fur instantly in response to being spooked, and have a peculiar aversion to jumping over obstacles, preferring to duck under even at breakneck speeds.
