If you want to throw a really wild party this season, be sure to invite one or all of these characters to the bash. The heads cleverly convert to coasters. And, while they are shot glasses, you could use them to create a fantastical tablescape, deck a mantle or liven up your desktop. Good gifting (and getting.)

Like taking shots?
Animal Lover?
Well, then here' the best of both world's for oyu:

Made of black glass and pewter these function as a traditional shot glass- or votive holder- by standing upside down on the animal's head which is designed to balance.

The complete line has 6 animals, elk, rhino, bull, bear, bunny and moose.

I love these! Dark and sophisticated, yet quirky and fun. They are designed to be stored animal head up, but will sit upsidedown when in use. Made by the Japanese design company Good Grams.

I lived in the mountains for a bit, and have never lost my love for animals such as bear, moose (!!!) and deer. Add a bull and rhino to the mix and you have yourself a set of black pewter and glass shot glasses.

You could also used these as candle holders, paperweights, or simply as decoration.

You've got to love shot glasses that just make you want to say "Grrrrr...."

These shot glasses are awesome. Choose from the following animal heads: Bull, Bear, Moose, Deer or Rhinoceros. All are designed to balance on their nose and ears/horns when flipped! So, when not being used for shots they can be decorative, but when it's time to get funky, they're ready to roll.

Ha! These are great. They'd also just make great desk ornaments. (via Generate Design)

Love these shot glasses!!! The detailed faces of animals are really impressive! May be a cool gift to give to those investment banker friends when we buy a set of Bull and Bear!
