Bear is done!!!

Hey, does anyone know someone around the Springs with a set of calipers? I would like to get this joker measured once the bleach is done :)
 
Those taxidermists can do a lot! When I measured this bear in the field he was a little under 5 ft long and a little over five feet wide. Now he's a full five feet long!

Now add that to the black felt and the black die on the excess skin and he looks so big I had my doubts that he is even my bear.

Hats off to rugs by Nancy in michigan and arctic wolf tanners in anchorage.

Hey just curious, what did it cost to have the rugs done? I killed my first bear last fall and am waiting on it from the taxidermist. Never got a for sure estimated cost on it as the guy said it depends on square footage.

Best to be sitting down when you get the answer. Glass of cool water. Baby aspirin won't hurt.
