taxidermy

When it's time to eat, it's time to eat. Check out this brute force in action.

Photos don't do it justice.

I am in need to find useful projects for the hair on, back skins I have collected. My dilemma is that want to make something useful for regular use without worrying about the hair being worn off. Typically I have seen hides used for stool/ chair upholstery, pillows, gun cases, floor and table...

They got here! 2 years and 4 days after our hunt started. Stuff looks really good. This is my first crate and I am so happy I’ve got my hands on this stuff again.

Opinions please: I have two crocodiles and one hippo collected in Mozambique that I want to get back to the US. The hides will be tanned into leather. And the skulls will be plain bleach skull mounts. Should I have the tanning and final skull preparation done in South Africa? Or, should I...

Dennis just delivered some critters today and created a superb grouping of little guys to hang over my spring buck slam he did last yr. My buff turned out awesome (43")and mean ass looking like he just wants to stomp you! My wife loves the giraffe all 12ft of it! Dennis is simply the best he has...

You might think he looks odd because he is closer to the ceiling, but that is the only room I had for him... so he is above my Liberty gun safe. Game Trail Taxidermy (USA) Address: 6280 County Line Rd, Mt Pleasant, NC 28124 Phone: (704) 782-4497

I received my crates from last year’s hunt a couple weeks ago so have had time to reflect on the entire process and it is a mixed review. I hunted in South Africa and on the advice of my PH and from many other past hunters I chose to use Universal Trophy Services. I decided on a pedestal mount...

I'm new here. Happy to help with any advise regarding with taxidermy, dip and ship, bleaching, caping, etc.

You may remember market hunting as unsustainable, however with proper regulation, recreational hunting was made sustainable. There are certain places where it could be nessecary. Feral hogs for example. Also, would you like heritage hunting species to be turned into livestock? Farmed venison and...

Im looking to find a good taxidermist in Tennessee for kudu, impala, gemsbok, blesbok and wildebeest. I would not reject any recommendations from Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, or Georgia Thanks, Jonathan

My christmas present came early this year from Dennis Harris @artistry of wildlife who delivered 20 african mounts to me about a week ago and picked up new 10 hides and horns from my garage floor. Dennis is a awesome taxidermist (not the best communicator) but he makes up for that in talent...

Hello I am interested in buying a pelt / skin (complete or partial) any age - of a Zebra Duiker for use as a teaching aid any help or advice would be appreciated. New to the site thank you

I picked up my lion on Friday. For multiple reasons, I am quite unhappy with the job they did. I won't go into all of the details. It's a well known taxidermist, but, my point isn't to bash them (at least not at this point). I have a question. Most of the whiskers are missing and some are...

Almost here!!!!! This is extra exciting to me as it includes two safaris worth of trophies dating back to August of 2014. To be clear, the choice to wait was totally mine. I decided to wait and have everything completed at once. As others have said before me, Paul at Relive has been great to...

Well the day finally arrived, the taxidermy from my first African hunt has arrived. After a long day's drive south to the US border, a little paperwork, and g&s tax my trophies were finally headed home. Now to figure out how to best display Matt Kaprauns fine work. Matt has All-American...

Greetings all. I'll be leaving for my first safari in Namibia in a couple of months and I'm beginning the education process on shipping and African game taxidermy. I'm concerned that the nice lady that mounts my ducks isn't up to the task of shoulder mounting a Kudu. For that reason, I've...

This mount was done by a taxidermist who I highly revere, not just for his talent as a true wildlife artist but for the natural talent and commitment to excellence that has propelled him to his first world taxidermy championship win at the tender age of 21!!! Here is the mount that earned Daniel...

As you are aware, personally owned African lion hunting trophies may not be imported into Australia unless the specimen was from an animal that was deceased prior to 1977. https://www.environment.gov.au/biodiversity/wildlife-trade/cites/stricter-measures/african-lion Does anyone have a trophy...

Although I personally am not a big game hunter my father-in-law lived to hunt. I believe he went on safari at least 8 or nine times. He loved Africa so much that he wanted to move there. It was only his love for his family that kept him state-side. His name was Tom Waller. Not sure if he may...

Iguana Mount Here is a close-up of the Iguana's head. By the way ... this is a skin mount ... not a reproduction! John Bellucci, Master Taxidermist. John Bellucci's Artistic Wildlife Taxidermy

Iguana Mount Not only are large "exotic" specimens mounted, but even the smaller varieties are brought to me. This is a large mature, male Iguana. Not the first reptile I ever mounted, but one of the few I ever photographed! This was one impressive fellow! John Bellucci...

Alaskan Grizzly Bear Mount The unique feature of this Bear's front teeth came from the fact that at some time in her life, she had been kicked in the mouth, literally splitting the front of her lower jaw, giving her incisors that jutted outward. After discussing this feature with the client...

Alaskan Grizzly Bear Mount The close-up of the Bears face reveal a pleasing eye turn, turning the Bear's attention to the viewer. Also note ... the nose is the actual Bear's nose! Many taxidermists today prefer to cut the natural nose off, in favor of a plastic reproduction. It's a fast...

Alaskan Grizzly Bear Mount This Alaskan Grizzly Bear was taken by client Jeff Bowman. The mounting of this bear was documented in Breakthrough Magazine -- a trade magazine for the Taxidermy industry -- with photos and article supplied by myself. The article included alterations to the...

Lioness Mount Mounted around 1978, this was a captive-raised 6-month old Lioness, who was killed when she jumped her owner's fence and was struck by a car. Now ... it wasn't the fact that the driver killed a Lion that got him scared ... it was the fact that the owner was a former member of...
