Animal Mount Details
Young's Taxidermy & Wildlife works on big game, small game, birds, and replica fish, including North American, African, Asian, and other international species.
They offer shoulder mounts, game heads, full-body mounts, pedestals, rugs, bird mounts, replica fish, and custom habitat displays.
Owned and operated by Master Taxidermist and artist Tim Young since 1995, the studio combines artistic training in drawing and painting with strong anatomical knowledge and holds both state and federal licenses.
Their work emphasizes design, composition, and lifelike detail to produce one-of-a-kind wildlife art pieces rather than generic mounts.
Pricing & Turnaround
They do not publish a price list and note that custom wildlife art costs somewhat more than average commercial taxidermy, encouraging you to contact the studio directly to discuss fair, project-specific pricing.
Most work is typically completed within 6 to 12 months, and they state they will not sacrifice quality to rush jobs.
They provide custom habitat bases and artistic displays, coordinate international and USDA-related logistics, offer worldwide shipping, local delivery and installation in some cases, personal pre-hunt consultation, and bronze wildlife sculptures for home décor and trophy rooms.
What Customers Say
Reviewers generally praise the mounts as exceptional, lifelike, and anatomically accurate, with some noting pieces that still look excellent after many years, though a small minority report workmanship concerns.
Customers often describe Tim as friendly, straightforward, and someone they trust with repeat work over many years, while one detailed review reports a negative email interaction that felt unprofessional.
Many reviews highlight good value, quick or on-time completion, and reliable adherence to the stated schedule, with several long-term clients returning for multiple deer and other trophies.
