Brown Bear VS Black Bear....Lots Of Pics

[harden]

This grizzly was deemed UNMOUNTABLE for a life-size from another taxidermist that had the bear tanned for my client because of it's entire bald side , and missing hair from rubs and bad tanning, shaved to thin. He recommended a rug. JD picked it up and brought it to me. My client JD Harris from Indiana came to my studio and presented the bear to me and asked my opinion and I worked out a mount that would cover the entire bad side of the brown and incorporate his just shot black into a cool piece for his trophy room.

Very creative, and unique!

Nice touch with the carved pawprint on the pedestal.

very nice work and creativity - I imagine that JD's pocketbook is quite a bit thinner than when he stopped in the first time - well done!

Dennis you always bring these hides back to life and creat the most amazing life size mounts. Just want to see my Red Stag wall pedestal mount from New Zealand last April.
