    This is exactly what I am looking for with a sharp left turn.... It's going to go in a corner of the room so I want it looking at the door when you walk into the room.

    I would also like to do something like this. Gota try to find someone that can do that on leather.

    I waited two years for this coyote to get back from the taxidermist. Finally received it in Oct 2017. The house burned down in Dec 2017. Terribly painful. I loved that white/strawberry blonde coat.

    That sucks, take it Watson in Franklin? Looks like one I shot several years ago. Have always regretted not getting it mounted.

    No. I live up in Northern Illinois. I took it to Trails End Taxidermy in Amboy. Great work, but its more of a side gig for him. He still runs his own business and taxidermist on the side. Great prices and great work. Just have to have patience with him.

    If I get another, especially with that coat color, I will not hesitate to get this done again.

    I really like this for a straight upright. Those are hard to pull off and look good. Your taxi did great work here.

    Just did a lil project with my skull mounts in the basement, grabbed an old fence post from our property and made the skull hangers from corner braces with carriage bolt and 2 nuts for 5$ and sprayed them flat black.

    Looks great! I've been wanting to get a cedar tree and shave the bark off and install in the corner of basement. Then hang my euros on that similar to yours. Something you can try for hangers that I do, use stair handrail brackets. Can get them in any color and they are only couple bucks.
