Framed Print of Skull and Horns of a Wild Buffalo, shot in Central Assam, 1854. Creator: Unknown
Skull and Horns of a Wild Buffalo, shot in Central Assam, 1854. Distance between horns: 6 feet 8½ inches. The Buffalo is found of majestic growth in a wild state in the numerous tree-jungles of Assam [in India], and the killing of this fine animal is one of the favourite wild sports of the country. In a shooting party made for this purpose, in April, 1842, a remarkably fine Buffalo was shot by Lieutenant-Colonel Matthie, near Tezpore, in Central Assam. The skull and horns of this stately specimen of the ox tribe have lately been brought by Colonel Matthie from India, with the intention of presenting them to be added to the already fine collection of horns in the zoological collection of the British Museum'. From Illustrated London News, 1854. Heritage Images features heritage image collections. © The Print Collector/Heritage Images
