What's your favorite way to hang a tanned fur for display in your house?
I'm trying to figure out the best way to display a Fisher and Otter hide, but I don't want to hang it in a way that will damage any of the pelt, such as the face.

I think that F&T sells decorative hooks to hang such things on.

I am still trying to figure out how to display mine??? I'm thinking more of hanging them in bunches, 3 coyotes together and same with fox??? Or somehow combine them with some of my trap collection???

I'm looking forward myself to responses and pictures on this thread...

I Googled "Fur Pelts decorative displays" and a few nice displays were shown.
