Beaver mounts?
Beaver mounts?
Hello,
My BIL recently had a trapper set traps on his ranch where beavers really worked havoc on the trees there. One of the beavers harvested was a 55 lb+ male that he would like to do a full body mount of. He has sections of trees the beavers fell as well as the "chippings." Any suggestions on the mount/display? Photos and suggestions are appreciated! He is thinking of a wall mount over a doorway of the ranch house but is open to ideas.

There are those that do, those that dream, and those that only read about it and then post their "expertise" on AR!

No pics anymore JKS but we had a 60 pounder one time. It was a pig! Visit the taxidermy.net and post your question. There are a lot of Taxidermists on their forum. Someone would most likely have pics.
