Fighting Black Bears Mount (BlackRiver Taxidermy)
« on: November 01, 2019, 03:08:43 PM »
Recently completed this set and thought I would post. Client came to me with several large black bears he had gotten in a few years that he wanted to have as full mounts to display in his gun store in Centralia, Wa. He gave me full reign on poses and habitat/display and this is what I came up with within his budget; two brutes jockeying over the possession of a fish.
Wishing everyone notched tags and freezers full this year!

Wow That is incredible!
Only 2 defining forces sacrificed themselves for you:
The American Soldier and Jesus Christ. One died for your freedom, the other for your soul.

My rock,
He trains my hands for war and my fingers for battle.
