Like it! But always when I see a half mount of a lion I wonder if the hyenas got the rest.

First class mount but the half arm is distracting and I would have preferred to have the back end of the lions skin continued rather than black.

Great work though!

Sometimes you have to do the best you can with what you have. I thought it turned out awesome, all things considered.

floor mount, the stump sits on a nice piece of pecan I think. Ben did not like the way the picture turned out when the whole piece was captured (too small) so he had the photographer crop the pic where the detail could be seen.

Yep weird, should have just done a wall shoulder mount on that one.

My brother in law is a taxidermist in Colorado and almost 90% of his work is now pedestals. I don't get it, I have never gotten it. I guess people like them, but I don't understand why.
