Zebra "Wall Art". A fairly new concept in taxidermy. Currently available for for a limited number of African species but in my opinion the zebra is best suited for this style.

The Harlequin Duck. One of the most striking ducks you can find! Also, one of those that many duck hunters will never have an opportunity to get. Your best chance at one is Alaska but they can be found in British Columbia, Washington State and Oregon. They have been rarely showing up on Lake Michigan but you can't hunt them there. They make an absolutely beautiful mount!

Had a customer who sent us a picture of a brook trout, apparently just caught. It was not a picture of his fish, just a picture showing how he would like his piece to look. He wanted his brookie reproduction to look like it did right after he landed his fish, laying in the shallows. The time when you take it all in... admire the beauty, realizing you've just caught your personal best, before it is released.

This is a unique piece that sets on a tabletop.

Fred is our fish guru. He's been employed at our studio for over 35 years. I really think he knocked this one out of the park!

The Sandhill Crane. What a cool bird to work on! There are 16 states and 3 Canadian provinces that have a hunting season for cranes. Wisconsin has a population that is well above what is needed to have a season. State biologists have recommended a season. Unfortunately, "public sentiment" has played WAY too big of a part in the decision of whether or not to have a season rather than sound, biological practices.

They are doing substantial crop damage in many parts of the state. They are a thriving, renewable resource. AND they taste GREAT! When people call them the "Ribeye of the Sky", they mean it! I can speak from experience. No, of course I have not poached them in Wisconsin. I have however, hunted them in Texas, Saskatchewan and South Dakota.

I hope the powers that be in WI get their head out of their dark or***ce and do what is right... let us hunt cranes!

Ocellated turkey, Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico. Our turkeys are pretty but I think these have ours beat!

Wall mounted mountain lion. Very nice pose for a cat. The face and ears show a slightly aggressive attitude. This one had an exceptional hide as well.

To most avid duck hunters the King Eider is the "Holy Grail" of their sport! Not only because they are so beautiful and unique but because it is such an adventure to hunt them. Most of the kings taken each year are off of the tiny island of St. Paul which is 200 miles out in the Bering Sea! These were taken with outfitter Charlie Summerville of Aleutian Island Waterfowlers Island X. I personally hunted with him last year. He runs a very well organized AND SAFE operation. Since it's not uncommon to be hunting in 10 - 20 foot rollers out in the Bering Sea, we wanted to bring a little bit of that part of the adventure into this mount.

The Chacma Baboon. A pretty formidable critter. They are very prolific in most of Southern Africa. In the wild, away from people, they are quite wary but can also be very destructive. One camp that I was in some time ago had the thatched roofs destroyed and wiring pulled out of outdoor lights by marauding troops of baboons! Many of the locals were glad to see their numbers at least thinned out some by hunters. I once drove around town with a mounted one sitting in my front seat, looking out the window. I certainly got a few "double takes" when vehicles would pull up next to me at the stoplight!

Most of the King Eiders we do are from Alaska. This tabletop trio was from Greenland. They are one of the coolest birds to work on!
