smerchly Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 Big loss to this company , hope they get their truck atv's & antlers back . They said there were 69 pairs of antlers in the trailer , worth $1.5 million dollars ???? Wow , that's a lot of money for racks !! Maybe my 50" moose rack is worth a few grand ..... http://www.thespec.com/news-story/6807821--1-5-million-in-antlers-stolen-from-caledon-taxidermy-shop/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave524 Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 I thought it was illegal to sell legally harvested game body parts , even antlers. I think they have to be naturally shed to sell , so how do they put a dollar value on them ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't be selling your 50 inch rack Smerch or you could get a visit from the constabulary, I assume you shot it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smerchly Posted August 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 Yes , I shot the moose and found out I cannot sell it . I don't like to see a high price tag for racks as it would encourage poaching like they do for rhino & elephants . And I'd like to know what this shop does with the racks to get such a high price for them ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner-2 Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 Antlers can be used for many things like knife handles but my guess and only a guess is that they use them to make lights with them one light can sell for up to 1,5 00 and as less as 250 they even make end tables with them corner floor shelves hat racks and the list goes on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
