Quick Facts

White Blesbok

The Pale Plains Trophy

The white blesbok is a colour variant of the blesbok, known for its pale coat, clean facial shape, and open grassland character. Its unusual colouring makes it a striking addition to plains game collections and trophy room displays.

A white blesbok mount should preserve the animal’s coat tone, horn symmetry, and natural posture. Shoulder mounts, pedestal mounts, skull mounts, and flat skins can all work well, depending on the client’s preferred display style and available space.
