Big game heads hunt aims to locate world records
The New York Zoological Society leads a four year effort to locate and measure America’s largest big game trophies. Using standardized methods, measurements from over 3,000 sources yield 891 trophies for the Records of North American Big Game. The project seeks undiscovered world records in Rocky Mountain towns and notes English ownership of many top heads.
