Byrd found this on Craigslist:

One exceptionally large mounted beast. Approximately 4.5′ by 5′. Camel-like in appearance. Reminiscent of a Ton-Ton from Star Wars: Empire Strikes Back. Constructed with a styrofoam skeletal structure and paper mache hide. Mounts on wall. Very realistic. Won at auction in 1997. An unfortunate accident in which the “beast” plummeted to the floor resulted in a broken neck. Tastefully repaired with duct tape. Fun at parties. Intimidates would be intruders.

Please contact if interested. Serious inquiries only.

Update: From a friend who desperately wanted this beast:

Hi,

Is this still available? I am willing to pick it up today or tommorow.

Thanks.
