Just completed my first cottontail rabbit mount. Definately was a difficult skinning job but the mount turned out very nice in my opinion.

Although small and often under estimated, rabbits are tedious and very difficult to mount. Yours looks very nice, Good Job!

I have tried a couple of times and I have never succeeded in mounting a lifesize cottontail, the skin always either falls apart or I ended up throwing it against the wall in discust half finished. Congradulations.
