Frame or other ideas for displaying a Bear Rug

[Thread Savage]

I’ve got a Newfoundland Black Bear made into a rug, and it seems too nice to put on the floor, and too big to nail up to a wall. Has anyone made a frame of sorts to drape a bear rug over for display in a home? Or is there something else I should be thinking of. I’m struggling on ideas for how to impressively display this bad boy.

What about using it as a comforter?

Drape it over the railing on a staircase if you have one

Have it tanned with a head mount (like a rug mount without the rug backing). Allows you to hang over furniture or from a wall without taking all kinds of room that a wall mounted or floor placed rug takes. Looks better than just a tanned hide with a wrinkled or distorted face IMO.
