What can be done with Crocodiles?

That's fantastic-looking skin, may I know who tanned it for you? And of course, you can make some bespoke shoes, boots etc...
American Tanning Company in Griffin, GA is who I’ve used for all my alligators from
here in Georgia. They do a fantastic job.
 
I gotta have one of these before too long...

Thinking of adding a Croc to my next hunt. What interesting things have you done with skull and hides? I am sure I do not want to fasten it to my living room ceiling for display, but it would start a discussion for sure.

OK here is photo of the croc on the ceiling he sent me...

I got this treatment done on the skull. I like it.

I have the skin naturally tanned on felt… Not yet displayed.

This originally was done as a 13’ 2” flat skin rug. I guess I am spatially challenged as I did not realize how big that really was. After spending years in the garage, I got creative and cut the head off the rug so it could be displayed on my porch. Don’t miss the rest of the rug at all.

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)
