Buffalo Trader Taxidermy

They primarily work on big game and livestock-style animals, including buffalo, other large game, and select domestic species, with an emphasis on skulls, head and shoulder mounts, and rugs.

You can choose from buffalo head, shoulder, and extra-large mounts, as well as skull and antler displays and rug-style pieces where available.

Dean Rogers brings 44 years of taxidermy experience and deep industry connections to each project.

They emphasize professional work, the ability to “build whatever animal you would like,” and custom pose and placement guidance to fit your space.

The studio lists clear base prices—for example, buffalo head mounts around $1000, medium buffalo mounts around $2500, large around $3200, and XL around $4200—with wholesale discounts for large orders and occasional reduced prices on estate mounts.

They do not publish standard turnaround times, so you should contact the studio directly to discuss schedule and shipping details.

They sell finished mounts and skulls, create commercial and wholesale displays for businesses nationwide, buy used mounts from family estates, offer rugs and skull cleaning, and arrange crating and shipping across the country.
