Most Taxidermist have a $/LF for Mt Lion rugs. What is the standardized measurement - Nose to tip of tail? Nose to ass?

I do the same as bears nose to base of tail other wise they would be paying an extra $400 or depending what you charge per ft just for the tail on a cougar.

You have to rug it too, especialy on a lion.

We are suppose to be making money not giving our work away.
I have never had anyone ask if I can rug all but the tail so they can save money.
