After you’ve successfully hunted your trophy animals in Africa, the next step is preserving them for years to come. Here’s a simplified breakdown of the taxidermy process:
Before your African bow hunting adventure even begins, you should consider taxidermy. Several crucial factors can significantly impact the skinning process.
First, decide how and where you want to display your trophies. Remember, a magnificent kudu trophy can easily reach six feet from its chest to the tip of its horns.
Next, consider the animal species. Some animals, like steenbok, duiker, bushbuck, and nyala, are so inherently beautiful that life-size mounts are often the best choice.
Early planning is key. Before your hunt, determine your desired mount style. Once skinned, a cape cannot be repurposed for a different mount.
By following these guidelines and working closely with our skilled taxidermist, you can ensure that your trophy becomes a stunning and enduring memento of your hunting experience.
