Unknown.
Like humans, cows form close friendships and choose to spend much of their time with 2-4 preferred individuals. They also hold grudges for years and may dislike particular individuals.
Adds instant gothic to any interior; who knew bovines could be so dramatic?
The condition of the whole is good with a well-aged patination and ivory hue making the skull very tactile. There are a couple of areas of loss, please see the photographs for visual reference. There is a hole to the top of the cranium which may indicate a bullet wound leading to death.
By appointment only.
