I'm looking to get a couple of bear hides done into rugs (Hopefully if we shoot them)
Just wanted to know of some good places to check out for this in eastern ontario?
What kind of prices should I be looking at?

Ditto!!! That's where I got my bear rug done. Excellent job!! They even did some repairs free of charge, and the damage was my own fault!!!BOB VANDRISH wrote:Try Advanced Taxidermy and Wildlife Design.

I also have a raccoon from them, and I am waiting on a hawk mount.
The animals in their showroom are from every corner of the planet. Cape Buffalo are huge!!! I love walking around the showroom and seeing all the different critters.
I think I paid $1100-$1200 for both the rug and having the skull done. Well worth it. Especially with what I went through to get the bear!!
Call them and ask them what you should do, as far as keeping the hide in ideal shape, so they can do their job if you shoot a bear. I've heard some horror stories!!!
You can take the man out of the woods but you can't take the woods out of the man.
