**Real Trumpeter Hornbill Skull Taxidermy 3-Pack: A Rare Educational Set**
This exceptional 3-pack of Real Trumpeter Hornbill Skulls offers a rare opportunity to own a comprehensive collection that showcases the growth stages and sexual dimorphism of the species. This set includes an adult male (small dent in the casque), an adult female, and a juvenile male, providing an invaluable educational tool for understanding the species' development and anatomical differences between genders.
The Trumpeter Hornbill (*Bycanistes bucinator*) is native to sub-equatorial Africa, spanning from north and north-east Angola and southern Democratic Republic of the Congo to East Kenya and southward to northern Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, and eastern South Africa. The species is medium-sized, measuring between 50-55 cm in length. Males typically weigh between 607-941 grams, while females range from 452-670 grams.
Notable features include black plumage with a white belly, rump, underwing coverts, and the tip of their wings and tail. The bare skin around their eyes is red. Both males and females possess a black bill and casque, but the male has a more prominent, high casque that extends to the tip of the bill, while the female has a smaller bill and a shorter casque with a yellowish base. The juvenile's skull is nearly casqueless, allowing for easy comparison of developmental stages.
This collection is perfect for educational institutions, museums, and collectors who appreciate the rarity and beauty of this species.
