the main damage is some tearing,brittleness around eyes/nose apart from that the fur is in really nice condition - 3 small bullet holes and a few tiny bald spots-the tears could perhaps be rectified with some form of backing or lining -im not a taxidermist -so i dont know too much about this stuff- i want to pass this onto somebody who can fix this up themselves - i think its got the potential to be a really nice piece
