After three nights of hunting in zone 4, My hunting partner and myself were finally able to close the deal on a 86lb 7' 5" gator last Friday night . Not a monster, but respectable none the less. I was considering preserving the skull but I'm not exactly sure how to do it. Does anybody have any ideas? I know boiling is one method but I also know that when you boil a deer skull that some of the fats and oils that are in the flesh can be absorbed into the bone resulting in a yellowish appearance and possibly giving the skull an odor. Would this also be true of an alligator. Anybody know of any other methods?
