Suggestions for how to hang Zebra rug on the wall?

My Zebra rug came from the Taxidermist with tabs and D-ring already attached making it easy to hang on the wall.
 
I just used push pins to hang my blue wildebeest on mine.. simple & quick.. no big holes in the end either.
 
We had to hang our beautiful Zebra in the stairwell and some back skins in the upstairs hall as we're out of room! We used pushpins, tacks and spiked staples. The tacks and staples literally disappear in the fur or felt backing.

I had a leather backing and D rings put on mine. Right now it lay across my dining table. I don't have wall space enough to hang it without rearranging some trophies. If I do hang it I'll use Monkey Hooks. They are a curved piece of wire and you just stick them through the drywall. They can hold up to 75 lbs. Available at Walmart and craft stores.

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.
