Hi Bandook,
A couple more pics showing tail or mane on shield. As you can see the hair looks as though it is growing out of the hide, the person who attached this was a real craftsman. I believe your suggestion, that it could be a talisman, to be correct as I cannot see that the decoration was applied around the hair. The hair seems to coarse to be fox or wolf though. Miguel
