Solid mount- is that off a Snuffaluphagus?
I have something similar- a baculum from a black bear, just cleaned it up last week!
Nice sized blackie - some good eats there and a really nice coat from what I can see.

Thanks! It was an easy shot, he was walking right at me, 30 yards, a single 180 gr 30.06 right through the aorta. It was relieving to see him pump out in less than 10 seconds but I definitely had another round ready! The way the blood gushed out I thought there must've been a big hole but no, just a pencil entry and no exit, so yes the hide's nearly flawless. Stoked about that and its already at the tanner.
The meat is excellent! The regs says we had to keep either the skull and hide or skull and meat, we kept it all and got a bunch of beautiful meat and fat off him. Its way tastier than I expected, and that;s a relief. Most say pork-like. I'm a few meals into it and it really reminds me more of beef than the moose, elk and deer I'm used to.
We already made a bunch of sausage and I just put a 4# roast through the pressure cooker for dinner.
I'm degreasing the skull too.
Anyone ever render fat? I've got about 15# and am going to try that too.
Made it back alive - the 11 mile crossing of the bay was nerve wracking at times, 11-12' swells with 35kt winds white capping. No deer this trip (blowing too much I think) but we did manage to pull a half dozen kings, a couple of silvers and one decent halibut.
I wear a size 13 boot for comparison
(And this is really just a small/medium sized bear).
Where's Waldo?

Yeah, you'll figure rendering fat out on your own, now 'marinate' the next big hunk in buttermilk for about 12 hours. You're welcome
I am forced to watch cooking channel drivel but occasionally Giada makes an appearance.

We're warned not to eat more than one fish a month out of some of the lakes and rivers around here because of the mercury content from the paper mills.
