[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 11707965, member: 2844"]The Barbary or Atlas stag was (virtually) extinct in North Africa. About ten years ago it was reintroduced from Spain, and the small herd has been protected ever since. They wouldn't export parts of this rare animal to West Africa to satisfy the need for local carving. So would love to see photos that prove it is bone. I'll see if I can find info about the Barbary stag in English.[/QUOTE]
