These people do a great job, I met them at the Pennsylvania taxidermy convention, and later sent them my coyote skull. They use beetles and the job turned out great. I shot this coyote during turkey season, I used my my 20 gauge as you can see lol.

the turkey shot sure makes a fine conversation piece doesnt it, overall the skull looks pretty good, i usually macerate my skulls but takes forever for the smell to dissipate. I do soak them in ammonia sometimes afterwards to kill the smell as much as disinfecting them.

I did a hog one time that was shot with #4 shot and everyone always asked about holes, made a real conversation piece.

Yes, The yote skull looks real cool. I think I will have to take the 12 ga. out to give some skulls some style. Now nina you are the taxidermist so start a cleaning your own skulls. Derek I know what you mean about the smell. My dogs will not even go close to my bug tanks. LOL
