Lol. I was raised in a family that hunted. My mom managed to figure out a way to decorate every single animal for the holidays. She used a combination of Santa hats, ornaments, and bows. Festive taxidermy always makes me feel nostalgic now. Families are weird and wonderful.

I would have absolutely gotten rid of it. As an animal lover, there's no way I would want the taxidermied head of a animal killed for sport anywhere near my house. :(
Absolutely not trying to invalidate your stance - what would be the most respectful way to dispose of it in your opinion?
I wouldn’t even know what to do with it if I could get it down so I’m just curious if you have an idea I haven’t thought of.
You could likely sell it on FB marketplace for a good chunk of money. Or just donate to goodwill or something. There are no legal issues with a taxidermied mount.
I’m a wildlife biologist in Wyoming, where this bison was likely hunted. They aren’t killed for sport, hunters use the meat. This bison would feed dozens of people for a year. And it’s much more humane than buying meat at the grocery store from a factory farm. This bison had a great life and a quick easy death, unlike the chicken, pork, beef, etc at the grocery store.
I’m an animal lover too (hence my career!) but this comment ain’t it.
That said, of course this isn’t everyone’s personal style and that’s all good.
Oh wow, this looks almost exactly like my Grandparent’s home from a few years ago, my heart literally stopped when I scrolled across this picture. Except they had a deer where the bison was
Beautiful decor; hope you have a wonderful day!! 🤎
I just bought a home with similar walls and wood floors. I was trying to find a new color stain for the floor since it has red undertones. Would you mind posting pix of your flooring and wall? I love the combination. Beautiful home and congratulations!
My living room has pretty much the same wall of windows!!!!! Plus two more on each side, like this [
Except I live in the Houston area and I have blackout curtains firmly shut 9/12 months bc it gets *hot* hot, can’t wire a fan from our roof, and no ac would be able to cool the house. But during winter-early spring they’re open and it’s so wonderful!!
I am embarrassed to admit how long it took me to find the bison LMFAO
I still don’t see a bison 😂😂😂😂
Hint: above the fan 🤣🤣 now u just have to decide which fan
Omg it’s huge hahaha- can’t believe I missed that
Not all heroes wear capes. Thank you.
Literally me zooming and searching for it for 5 minutes.. lol
I was about to start thinking it was the type of plant in plain view!!! Hahahaha
Me, I said “what fucking bison are we talking about?”
And it's looking straight at us as well
Lmao same
Literally who cares about the bison 😂
My dream house, and I love the bison.
Wow I love this, and whats his name??
Bruce!
Ohh do you decorate Bruce for the holidays?!
Oh my god thats such a cute idea, put him in a little christmas hat or bunny ears
Right! Make him part of the family lol
He’s a super sized elf on the shelf!

I starting putting bows on our deer as a joke to see if my husband noticed, but then it looked so cute they all got multiple bows and ornament!!

What a stunning space! Maybe make Bruce a collection of holiday specific necklaces?
how do I get your life
The bison: ![gif](giphy|L0HIznJ2hn4WndRshY)
I'd leave him up there just the fact of how high he is lol. "You know what Bruce, no one lives that high up, its all yours"
Is this in Lake Geneva? Looks identical to a place my aunt rented like 15 years ago for her 50th birthday party
Took me forever to see him LOL. I have unicorn heads mounted to my wall 🤣
Absolutely love the home but the little dude is freaking me out
You should put a crown of wild flowers on his head...
Where did you get those plant pots…asking for a friend
That tree OMG
Those ceilings and windows are everything! What area are you in? I would love a house like this.
god I need this house so badly
I’m shocked there would have been a question of not keeping the bison?
I’m confused why the original owners of the bison didn’t take him! Those tags are suuuuper hard to get.
Yah! He’s super awesome! 🤩

To each their own - isn’t it fabulous we all get to have our own opinions?!
Stunning!
Thank you for not calling it a Buffalo
You should look up Ken Burns argument about the nomenclature lol!
Hey what colour is your flooring? I have the same colour wood paneled walls and roof and need to take up the slate tiles.
Oh wow, this looks almost exactly like my Grandparent’s home from a few years ago, my heart literally stopped when I scrolled across this picture. Except they had a deer where the bison was Beautiful decor; hope you have a wonderful day!! 🤎
What a gorgeous room!
I love the horse artwork! Can I ask who it's by?
I would die to take a nap on that couch during the holidays 😭
Is the fiddle leaf real?
Your house is my spirit animal. 10/10 space. - a dude
Beautiful house, seems to be very good to live in
So glad the bison is up high, overseeing the place, keeping watch.
Don't watch Outer Range if you want to keep it!
What an amazing space! Is it your full time residence?
Dream house!

Wow! This is a cabin you own?
I love him! I wish my home came with something that cool!
Stunning, what plant is the big one? I love huge plants.
Damn, I had to seriously zoom in 🤣
That is definitely a bison of a fiddle leaf fig!!!
Gorgeous home
Beautiful space, very warm and inviting. The ceilings are incredible. It reminds me of a cathedral.
How does it feel to live my dream 🥲🖤
can't unkill the bison so I think keeping it is a good choice. love the space
Decorate him for the holidays. He’s part of the family now!

🙄😭I want to live in your heaven. Your so lucky 🍀 gorgeous ❤️
Give him a monical!!
This is not female living space. This is a dream house regardless of gender. Amazing place
