Default Frozen Animals

here is a specific question that i am sure will get several different answers.
How long can an animal be frozen before it is no longer mountable.
a friend of mine shot a coyote last year this time and was planning on mounting it but has since forgot it in my chest freezer. the reason i ask is he no longer wants it and i dont want to see it go to waste so seeing how i am interested in learning taxidermy i was thinking maybe this would be an good trial specimen and if it does come out good maybe i will give it to him with a slap in the head for leaving it at my house for so long.

especially if it was bagged (pastic) it should be just fine.
