How to fix a broken ear Pictures added
OK got in a hurry was driving a nail into the stud next to my whitetail head. It fell and broke the ear across the middle. I think with a touch of care and time I can get it back in in place. What would be the best clue? I see 2 issues one the cartilage or form and second is a flap of skin.

Just a basic TX hill country whitetail. If it was a nice head I would be taking it someplace.


As usual just my $.02

Here are 3 pictures. The ear cartridge or form is broken and hide across the back. The hide is also thorn on the front both sides.

25 years ago I repaired an almost identical broken ear on a 30 year old brushback mount( done by Jonas Brothers in the 1950's) with super glue. The hair covered the break and it still looks perfect today
