Flying with elk, moose or caribou skull?

[Ridgerunner7]

Do most airlines allow you to fly with a European mounted elk skull/anters or something similar sized if it is boiled and clean, wrapped up thoroughly and all of the antler covered in like pool noodles and cling wrap? Or does it actually have to be in a container or box and potentially have it split.

I’ve hear mixed so probably depends on airline.

I know a guy that flew home with 52" moose antlers with the skull split and the antlers nested. Covered all points with pool noodles and shrink wrapped them a bunch. He said Alaska Air Lines is a little more willing to let you fly with antlers than others though.

I've done it with the skull split and wrapped up Elk and Caribou....and I've flown with Whitetail racks that just fit in a big duffle- no problem
