How to hang a Bear Rug on a wall?

[Gil Verwey]

I shot a bear many years ago. I just redid my man cave and want to hang the rug on the wall. What is the best thing to use to hang the rug and the best way to do it? It is felt backed.

Thanks

You can sew round hangers on the back of the rug in order to hang it.Hope this helps

Mine had rings sewn on each paw,made it very easy to hang.

Yep, mine had rings under each paw and the chin. Makes it easy to hang in any direction you want.

I used brass appolstry tacks. hammered them in through the felt not the hide. took many all the way around the hide to make it hang without any wrinkles.

I actually used adhesive velcro strips

My taxidermist told me to use long brads every 10" or so, through the hide, not just the felt. Look's great, no wrinkles.
