Sad thing is that it looks better on the floor than on the pig. Man they are one UGLY critter. I am almost thankful I do not meet this furry little things in our woods.

Cool! Congratulations on the hog.
How about putting it on the floor in front of the refrigerator? :biglaugh: It would be a good reminder if you are trying to diet.

Wow, like others I am very surprised about how good that looks. On the other hand I am not surprised at all about Bone lake's wife's comment :D . I am sure my wife would offer similar commentary as well as a cost breakdown for obtaining such an item !["[dntthnk]"]("graemlins/dntthnk.gif" "\"\"")

Great looking rug. First I've ever seen. Got a bear skin rug and a wolf, never thought about a pig skin rug. Guess I'll have to mention that to my taxadermist. By the way rugs look great draped over old seamans chest. I would be concerned about someone breaking the teeth on this one.

If you put that in front of the fire place, I suppose those tusks would rule out any romantic encounters! Ouch! :scared:
If you put it on the floor, better make sure the dogs are okay with it. A co-worker had a next door neighbor that had his polar bear made into a rug. The next morning he was throwing it in the trash after his dogs pissed all over it and chewed it to shreds. Never did find out if he had 2 golden retriever rugs made after that episode! :jumper:

Bone, my wife said almost the same thing!!! :]
Awesome skin, I just save the inside and throw away the wrapping. I'll have to save the next one instead of feeding the buzzards.
Maybe if I get a couple bigs ones and have a bedspread made.......I'll get back to you all on that one. :}

it does look cool, but does it still smell like a boar too. :)
Most of the boars I've killed are so wire haired I can't imagine using a hair-on skin for anything but a tire scrubbing brush or boot cleaner at the back door. :)
Thats definitely a good looking skin for a boar though, he must not have had to fight much in his time or the taxidermist did a great job hiding scars. Very neat idea. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. - eric
