Real Wilderness Taxidermy

Real Wilderness Taxidermy works on a wide range of big game, small game, birds, fish, and skull and antler projects.

They provide shoulder mounts, life-size mounts, bird and fish work, rugs, and European-style skull and antler displays, with options like open-mouth and wall pedestal presentations where noted.

The owner emphasizes his background as an avid hunter and focuses on meeting each customer’s vision through careful, custom-oriented work.

Skins are commercially tanned by leading tanneries and mounted with high-end materials to support durable, realistic results.

They publish a detailed price list for game heads, life-size mounts, birds, fish, rugs, and skulls and antlers, with examples like $850 for full shoulder deer or antelope, $1,795 for large elk shoulders, $3,450 for life-size deer or antelope, $7,500 for life-size elk, $14.50 per inch for fish skin mounts, and $17.00 per inch for reproductions, plus extras for options such as open mouths, detachable horns, sheds, and plaques.

The owner notes he understands your desire to have trophies home as quickly as possible, but no specific turnaround times are listed, so you should contact the studio for current schedules.

In addition to custom work, they offer rugs, tanned hides, finished mounts, antlers, capes, skulls, and other sale items, with some prices negotiable and shipping and crating charged separately.
