Considering that this thread is about taxidermists, I might as well post my query here.
I am planning on starting my African hunting adventures in the near future with a plains game safari, and I hope to have all the animals taken on said safari mounted. As I am in Australia, I am unsure at to how I would go about having my animals mounted, and I want to make sure that I do my research before planning a safari. In another thread I remember reading that it is very hard to get hides through Australian customs that are dipped and packed (as opposed to tanned), and I have also read that many people advise against having your skins tanned in Africa.
I would really appreciate any advice, especially from other Australians or New Zealanders.
