[QUOTE="epoletna, post: 2472927, member: 87371"] The problem with boiling is that you melt the fat and it enters the hollows in the skull, eventually turning the skull yellow. I just soak heads in water, up to the horns, for a week or so. Horns will slip off, you can scrape skin and muscle off the skull, then bleach it and you'll have a nice European mount. I think a better way is to use dermestid beetles (meal worm beetles), but I've never used that. [/QUOTE]
