This image speaks for itself. Taxidermy is still mainstream, and D&DH couldn’t be happier about it.
Here is where D&DH found the image. There’s an article that goes with it. Martha Stewart (yup, that’s her up there) is a big fan of taxidermy. D&DH commends everyone who spreads appreciation for this time-honored tradition.
Ever tried your hand at taxidermy? How did it go?
I did an European mount with my first buck. Not hard, but takes some time and the ability to withstand the stench of it boiling. Very happy with the results.
I started doing my own taxidermy acouple of years ago. I wanted to have a shoulder mount done on a buck I had got during the archery season, and after pricing out the cost of taking it to a local taxidermist, I decided to give it a try. Its a beautiful artform, I like it and now my father says he has his own personal taxidermist.
