Blake, I do alot of bear and deer skulls for alot of people. I do mine by boiling. Another way is with dermestid beetles if your set up to do that. After i get the skull clean I whiten it with hydrogen peroxide. Next i remove the teeth{all that will come loose}and clean and glue them back in place. Next i glue and pin the jaw in place with the mouth open. If you are not up to the challenge i do all this for just fifty bucks plus shipping. If i can be of anymore help just e-mail me. have fun.
