swwildlife Report post Posted September 13, 2014 This Leopard was caught in a snare and lost it's foot. The client really wanted us to try and hide the lack of a foot. at first we were going to hide it in foliage but she wanted him standing on a branch. Then we came up with the idea of why not just replace the whole foot. Now leopard skins are very high dollar and can only be purchased within the state, and who will give up their Leopard for a foot? So we decided to use a Mountain Lion foot and bleach it, then dye the spots back on it. What do you think? did we pull it off? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lancetkenyon Report post Posted September 18, 2014 The first foot photo....I thought...."Umm...not so much." Then I saw the second photo, and thought, "Unless you KNOW it is there, you will never see it." Great job saving the mount. Looks amazing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
