Taxidermy, is this my bear?

I just got my black bear shoulder mount back from the taxidermist today and it looks great. I may just be paranoid, but what if it isn't my bear? In "in the woods" pictures my bear has a lot of brown fur around its mouth and nose. On the mount there seems to be a little less. There was also a pronounced brown spot above the left eye, which still seems to be there, but is less bright. There are a few bare spots on his chest though, which I think I remember. Also his nose is shorter and the face is fatter. Is this just from the mold underneath? It most likely is mine because it was huge for the area and is a record book bear, but there is a little doubt. Could the fur change a little after being frozen, thawed, and mounted? It has taken a little over a year. Thanks.
