My friend recently got back his bobcat mount. After hanging it on the wall and taking a look at it I feel the face is a bit on the odd side. Don't get me wrong but I am not taxidermy judge and don't mean to offend anyone I just feel as if the face looks odd. Does anyone agree? I feel the nose color is off and the lips are done in a way that almost looks as if it has pecans stuffed in its mouth.

Well, that is certainly one of the better ones we have seen on here. I agree with nose, but me the mouth is fine to me.

The cheek line that runs by the nose is too thin.

Go look at some of the bobcats in the taxidermy section and you be the judge.

This is a prime example of why I don't let just anyone do a predator mount for me. Most Taxis don't see enough cats to do a good job on them IMHO

BMD nailed it. Ears are way to low and on the side of the head. Fixing them would have made it look quite a bit better.

Yet another example why I'll never mount a bobcat. The vast majority are poorly done.
Tan the hide and hang it on the wall instead.

If the link above doesn't work its Google's page for bobcat images. IMO nose too red should be more flesh(human) colored. But otherwise fine.
I've seen worse.

For this reason, always mount bobcats with mouth open. Few taxidermists can make a bobcat look good with closed mouth.
