19 1/8" Bear Skull
« on: March 13, 2010, 03:18:25 PM »
I finished this skull a few weeks ago but my husband had the camera with him so I wasn't able to get photos.  Bear Scored 19 1/8".  The 2 big Bear Skulls I have don't have much for inner nasal bones.  I can only imagine it may have to do with there age because all the smaller younger skulls I clean have great inner nasal bones.



You can see in this picture that the bear had broken his preorbital bone sometime before he was killed.  One part is missing and the one part had knit and fused back together.

Looks great. I've got a coyote skull in the freezer that I need to get done. I looked at your website and couldn't find pricing for the euro mounts. What would ya charge for a coyote. Skull only no plaque

It's not the size of the trophy that make's it a trophy.
