Dallas Taxidermy

Dallas Taxidermy works on big game, small game, exotics, and birds, with an emphasis on comprehensive shoulder, lifesize, and skull mounts rather than pets or fish.

You can choose from shoulder mounts, lifesize mounts, European and skull mounts, bird mounts, wall pedestal styles, rugs, and related tanning work.

Will transitioned from a corporate career into taxidermy in 2020, building a studio rooted in his passion for preserving friends’ and family’s hunts and supported by a strong family and community network.

The business promotes next-level, lifelike taxidermy focused on natural poses, detailed skull cleaning, and work intended to remain strong and beautiful for generations.

Dallas Taxidermy prices its work to match the local market and publishes detailed rates for big game, African and exotic species, Euro/skull mounts, birds, and rugs, with examples like whitetail deer shoulder mounts at $850, antelope shoulder mounts at $850, elk shoulder mounts at $1,800, and a 50% deposit required for shoulder and lifesize projects.

Shoulder and lifesize mounts typically take about 6–9 months, and the studio stays in close contact with updates on your estimated completion date.

They offer dedicated skull cleaning and European mount services, rugs such as zebra rugs, tanning-related services, and can recommend local meat processors, but they do not provide pet taxidermy or meat processing themselves.
