Alaska Blackie
Just got back from black bear hunting in Southcentral Alaska and bagged a decent one, about 6'2". What was cool was he had a big melon and huge paws. Although small ears can be an indication of a large bear this guy had sonar ears attached to him.
I am going to rug him, $850 (Ouch) but they want to charge me an extra $150 for the skull. I figure I can do this myself but need advice. The taxidermist is going to seal and give the skull back by the end of the week. So what do I need to do? Boil obviously but I hear some people say not to use bleach?
Any thoughts or recommendations? I would like a step-by-step instruction.
I want to attach a picture, but it says file too large. How do I shrink file size?
