As I said, it's very hard to believe that ANY taxidermist would let a bear leave their shop looking like that. Just because a guy posts it on the Internet, doesn't mean it's true.
And yet we know from threads on this site that there are taxi nightmares out there. So, it does happen. The taxi in question here had an opportunity to address the OP's assertions. We'll see what happens.

Why do facts always seem hard to come by....

Probably because it doesn't cost anything to post on the Internet and there's no penalty for lying.

Yes, but that bear is SO bad it's very hard to believe, in my opinion. If it did leave a taxidermist's shop in that condition there has to be more to the story. Like the client got tired of waiting and took it home before it was done?   :dunno:

I mean, come on, my daughter who is in 2nd grade could probably do better than that.

All we need is for the OP to post a seahawks hat, shirt, something that we know it's real for us next to that rug... He clearly can't.  Why would someone go on here and start crap and try to hurt someones livelihood?

Reguardless...whoever did that rug should either quit and leave it to the professionals or stop getting high on the job

Pygmy, please ask Nathan to post pictures of some of his recent bear rugs so we can see his work. It might make an interesting comparison. Thanks,
PMan

I really don't want to bother the man more than I have.  Feel free to reach out to him directly if anyone wants further clarification.  For me, having talked to him, I believe he didn't produce the rug.  For the sake of a man's reputation and business the OP and thread should be removed.   :twocents:

Yep, you got it.

Scan a receipt or something to muzzle the non-believers.

Post a pic of that bear rug again - with a seahawks hat/shirt/something seahawk related, so we know it's legit... Shouldn't be too hard, right kpigott?

So as I mentioned before, I had intended on doing a 3/4 mount, the quote was $1800.  I have $900 deposit and said go ahead.  I then changed my mind within a day and said I wanted a rug.  When Nathan said it would be $1400 he said that was a rug price with no head (open mouth), basically a layed out hide.

We went back and forth about his $625 prruce and he said the 1400 is because it is a "Full body"  we settled on $1100 plus tax.  That is where the $1200 came from.



I'm just getting the word out.  BUYER BEWARE

Post a pic of the rug w/ a seahawks (or any football) gear next to it... Just seems fishy.  I've had work done by Nathan, never had any quality/price/communication issues.

Tell me what good it's going to do to take a picture with some Seahawk swag?  I mean, I could decorate one of my elk shoulder mounts with the old ladies undies but it ain't gonna say who stuffed him, is it?
I mean the undies are legit (I hope),  The mount is legit (I'm certain).  But the taxi could be anyone's guess.
