tanned hide Q
i shot a bear last fall and had it tanned, it was finished in october, and still has a bad smell eminating from it, smells chemical, not like something rotting, i'id heard it might be a sealant they put on it, but i just want it to go away, is there anyway i can do this without ruining the pelt?
it seems to be coming from the paws for the most part, and febreeze wont take it away,
any suggestions, as to what it is, or how to get rid of it
the smell is so prolific that i keep it in a closet, instead of displaying it
