2ftx5ft I have the skull not yet boiled.  A guy I hunt with gave me this hide to tan for practice before I tanned the one I killed this year. It worked out real well. I just do not need it as the one I killed is over twice as big and takes up a little wall space.Would throw in boiled skull as well.

OOPS bear skull is now a lot of skull fragments. Lower jaw is intact. Do not drop a skull on concrete.Lower jaw still goes.

well i guess that answers my next question
i was gonna ask if the skull could have been reinstalled into the hide
i like the look of the head in a rug with the mouth open.  :-\

well i will have to back away now,i really wanted the skull with it  :(

Just to make sure no one has any worries about this coming back on the market, I am glad to let you all know there was nothing wildman did to stop the trade we had worked out. 

The bow I had for him did not perform to my minimum standards and I refused to stick it to him with an inferior product in an exchange.  I backed out of the deal and any black mark goes on me, not Wildman.  Thanks everyone.

Sorry again, Wildman, would have loved to have that bearskin, but I'm not going to cheat it away from you.
