This Rug is a older one, and is of younger male not quite fully mature. The Rug was mounted in India probably in the early 1960's. The mount was done using the real skull. The Rug has been professionally cleaned and restored. Some minor repairs have been done because it was not always properly taken of through the years. The hair is still tight and the tanning has help up quite good. Probably the Rug was walked on and the Dog and Kids also did their share of adding some ware and tear. After the restoration we will say this Rug is in fair to good overall condition and the taxidermy quality is a 7.95. Again, let me say the hair is good and not shedding. Of course, any Wild Tiger Rug or mount is quite Rare, or hard to get a hold of. The Rug is missing the claws on the back feet, but the front Paws have all of their claws. The Rug measure 7ft. 10 1/2" from the tip of the nose to the tip of the tail and the width font paw to the other front 5ft. 7". This rug will certainly make as a rare conversation piece.
