Shakeyjake OP trapper Joined: Jun 2022 Manitoba	A taxidermist from Newfoundland sent a bunch in so got it back much quicker than I expected. They needed ten to start and mine was the 3rd. Just over 10’. 550 hide, 327 shipping & 2200 CAD to tan. Only place for it is the wall going up our stairs…lol Thanks again Muskrat411 and International Fur Dressers! Wind Blew, crap flew, out came the line crew

As you stated, getting it off the floor is the start . Very nice fur. http://www.illustrationsinmotion.com/index.html " A wuff is a wuff, is a wuff. " Jack Whitman

I could bring it along to our convention & stuff I suppose. One claw fell out during the process. Guess I’ll make a necklace or something out of it. Wind Blew, crap flew, out came the line crew

Shakeyjake OP trapper Joined: Jun 2022 Manitoba	Originally Posted by Slick Pan You went this far why not rug it ? Still can. But do what with it, I got no room. It’s hanging along our stair well. I actually ain’t into it for much. $3000CAD is pretty low for a +10’ polar bear hide. For the price Ian wanted for it raw, I couldn’t pass it up. Wind Blew, crap flew, out came the line crew

You should get a taxi to re attach the claw sheath that slipped. Last edited by Boco; 07/18/24 05:55 PM. Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

The thing is if you do not rug it, the hide will deteriorate faster.It will look like someone's great grandma over time.Do you want that ? If you rug it you will preserve the hide better along with the value. Find a place for it.Toss some crap you have on a wall and give it the respect that it deserves.
