Bear
It is very nice of you that you gave away the mount to ( I hope) someone who has the space and will appreciate and admire the piece of art.It is very sad to know ,and often see ,how many good pieces of taxidermy are treated very poorly, often kept in dusty garages and basements to be deprived of their unique creation. I have quite a large "Man cave" of mine where i have many varieties of animal taxidermy works, most of them are mine although a few i have rescued from awful conditions. These types of intricate work are meant to be admired and to pay respects to the animals and having well preserved their soul and wild spirit. In my wildlife corridors those trophies have the sanctuary they deserve and are well appreciated by me, my friends and family.
