is ready to move in
I killed this bear back in 2002. I was intimidated to mount such a big animal as at the time, as a squirrel was the largest LS I had ever done. I let another taxidermist do it, and with in a year it was coming apart. So I wet it up and took it on apart and put it in the freezer. That was in 2004 I think. Well after getting my MT lion done a few weeks ago I decided it was time to get my bear back in the house. and boy oh boy the wife is going to be thrilled when she walks in as this thing takes up a lot of space. LOL
But that is why I have a trophy room. And as tiny as it is, it will be full today.
way back then.
ready to go in the house

Awesome! I am expecting my bear to arrive next week. I killed it in May. I'm just getting a shoulder mount with some greenery around it though. What did yours weigh?

wow that is an awesome piece but just had to laugh when you said you were intimidated to mount it. My mind went south:)
But if you need a hand moving it into the house I would love to help, just to see that.
