Does anyone know a good way to remove folding and other creases from a zebra rug?

I have one with some unbelievably stubborn creases in it. It's been on the floor for ten months and still it's creased.

How about applying heat, ironing, something like that?

I'm hoping that there's a better way to do this than waiting for gravity.

Why does your rug have creases in it?

A steamer would probably work for you.

Folded and put up/shipped still wet. My first impala flatskin (Kwiktan, RSA) looked like a picnic tablecloth. At Roland Peacock's suggestion I ironed the back like a pair of Levi's. It helped a lot.

Our zebra rug developed major creases/folds soon after it was received from the taxidermist. We sent it back to him and he cut some pieces out then sewed up the slits. Now it lays on the floor as flat as p___ on a plate.
