Step 1. Remove it from the pig.
Step 2. Do whatever you want with the parts of the pig that are
not head. A lot of people eat them, some make planters of
them. One old lady I know cuts them up and gives the pig
parts out to kiddies on Halloween.
Step 3. Put pig head in jar. Not that little teeny one! It's got to be
big enough so the pig head will go through the mouth!
Sheez!!!
Step 4. Fill jar with a 40% solution of Formaldehyde.(Also known
as formalin) This is available through science supply
houses. Look "em up in the Yellow Pages.
Step 5. Deliver pig head to friend. ***WHY****? is the question.
Step 6. Get new friend.

Use vinegar. A somewhat medium concentration. Too strong it will dissolve too weak it will rot.
