One year later, my boar skull is done. Shot this boy about a year ago. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2024/11/full-56970-435861-img_1095.jpeg) Retrieved the skull about 2 months later. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2024/11/full-56970-435862-img_1271.jpeg) Let nature work on it until this last weekend . ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2024/11/full-56970-435863-img_1447.jpeg) Power washed it, scraped anything remaining off and submerged it in hydrogen peroxide for 24 hours. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2024/11/full-56970-435864-img_1500.jpeg)

That's pretty cool! I might have to try that with mine.

If I leave one to nature there's nothing left. I have major transmission lines running through the farm. So the buuzards and hogs clean everything up pretty quick. I have hung one for the grandkids on a low limb and retrieved later though. Looks good.

All that was left of a hog I shot last December. Came back the following September. This all that was left ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/DwH83ywZ/IMG_4526.jpg)

I went down a week after shooting the hog and there was no trace of him.. I found the skull in the Spring when looking for sheds. It was about 150 yards from where I shot him.
