boil it to kill any bugs or bacteria. if you want, you can buy a bleaching kit from any online taxidermy shop. or just leave it as is.

Kewl and thanx im usually not into the whole dead things decor but I found the long single spikes kinda intriguing they are about 2-3 feet long with no branches I was thinking elk maybe?

It's pretty easy, make sure you boil it for long enough though. Bone contains fat/oils and you want as much of it to leave the bone as possible.

I cleaned a deer skull last year the best thing to do is go to bass pro shop or any hunting store and get the bleaching kits it has cleaner that will remove all the dirt and oils good luck.

It's definitely my ex girlfriend's. Last time I spoke to her she was fine... I wonder what happened, and how she got to Oregon? :no:

I'd recognize those horns anywhere. That's her.
