Animal Mount Details
Fox Studios Taxidermy works on big game, small game, birds, fish, exotics, and occasional pets from North America, Africa, Asia, and New Zealand.
You can choose from shoulder mounts, full-body mounts, European mounts, rugs, and both skin-mount and reproduction fish, often paired with custom habitat bases.
Kurt Fox has been in business since 1970, bringing over 50 years of experience and thousands of completed trophies plus global outfitter connections to each project.
Reviews and the studio’s media features highlight award-winning, highly detailed, realistic mounts that many customers describe as museum quality and done to perfection.
Pricing & Turnaround
They publish detailed price lists by species and mount type, with clear rates for big game, exotics, birds, fish, rugs, and tanning, and invite you to contact them for custom quotes and rental pricing.
Reviews note that prices feel fair for the quality and convenience, and that turnaround can be quick on some work, while projects such as European mounts during peak hunting season may take several months.
In addition to mounts, they offer rugs, tanning, custom habitat bases and displays, taxidermy rentals for productions and events, finished pieces for sale, and a booking-agent service to help arrange guided hunts with trophy mounting on return.
What Customers Say
Customers consistently praise the quality and realism of the work, calling the craftsmanship phenomenal, perfectly detailed, and “unreal” across many different species, including treasured trophies and an elderly pet parrot.
Reviewers highlight kind, professional, knowledgeable service, saying Kurt and his staff are easy to work with, true gentlemen, and that they often use the studio exclusively over many years.
Comments mention a museum-like shop that families enjoy visiting, many long-term repeat clients, and generally positive experiences with turnaround times, with only occasional multi-month waits during the busy hunting season.
