If your son is under 18 it is normally ok. Easy if you just have all animals put under your name from the start.Curious and understand it depends on how many animals and weight but what did it cost you to get your trophies home? Any advice? I hope they can ship mine and my son's together to help a little.
Thanks,
I have had all my mounts done in africa. It depends on what mounts you want done if it will be cheaper in the end. You get some bigger animals mounted or full mounts it can be cheaper to do over there and there is plenty of good taxidermist in africa. It will normally take 7 or 8 animals to save anything once extra shipping is added.Serious question. Would it be cheaper/easier just to shop hides, horns, antlers etc to your taxidermist in the states? Then you get the quality work done the way you like it.
In regards to this question, would the African taxidermists be better at mounting animals than those in the states? I would imagine Animal Artistry in Reno would be good as they do lots of them but I’m wondering about the smaller shops throughout the country. Just like quite a few taxidermists in the states can’t do cats worth a darn because they just don’t do enough of them…Serious question.

there are plenty of big and small shops that do great work both here in the states and in africa. I would give a small edge to finish work to the guys here in the states. As in if you going to look at your mount for 3ft you may see the difference in quality.In regards to this question, would the African taxidermists be better at mounting animals than those in the states?
