Finally got my caribou rug!
« on: February 12, 2019, 07:53:48 AM »


Brian Peterson, of Cedarcreek Taxidermy, gave me my caribou rug at the United Bowhunters of Missouri Festival this past weekend. I arrowed this bull in September of 2017. It took over a a year to get the hide tanned and sent to me from Quebec. When I got it, I immediately gave it Brian so he could work his magic. I am very happy with the outcome.

That's cool!  I regret not saving the hide off my elk a few years ago but it was hot and far and the meat took precedence - will you wall hang it or use on couch or what?

Tim, it's set up to hang on the wall so that's what I'll probably do. I'd hate to think of my bloodhound's and Great Pyrenees' muddy footprints all over it!

Looks great.  I had a shoulder mount done on my Mountain Caribou, but the rear part, I had a small rug made.  I placed it on the floor below the shoulder mount.  They are beautiful animals.  Just got a note from the taxidermist in Namibia - my rugs and mounts are about to be shipped.  Should have everything in a few weeks.
