That's pretty cool. Take a 5 gallon bucket a gallon of bleach and hot water. Four gallons of water and the gallon of bleach and soak that thing for a day or two. Pull it out and wash it off and it'll be nice and white. I did this with a 3 x 3 deer skull I found back in MN a few years ago. It sits on my fire place mantle now.

Awesome find..
what I do to degrease is is to fill a bucket with water and dawn dish soap, put the skull in it and let it sit for a week and change the water and let it sit for another week, bear skulls are really greasy so it will take more than a few days to get all the grease out.
