Finished taxidermy should breeze through-even “raw” products should be in and out in a day or two. I truly hope you aren’t paying storage for extra days. Good luck I am excited to see your finished products

We are working with an importer that has a flat fee bonded warehouse.

Threads like this are a reason why I'm not planning on bringing anything back from my hunt in July. Sigh ... my buffalo from '22 only made it to my house about four or five months ago.

I realize this is an old post but I just got my buffalo from 22 back 3 weeks ago

I'm curious who your outfitter/taxidermist was. I've only ever heard of 1-2 other people with longer timelines than ours. Those folks I know with longer timelines had CITES animals which added to the timeline.

Getting from Africa to my taxidermist was 6-7 months. Dip and pack with Highveld. I used legends taxidermy here at home, they seemed to struggle with the tannery. I think the tannery had the cape for 18 months.

Ahh ok. That's understandable. The longest period was on the tanning and final work.

You are not the first person I've heard of with issues on the tanning side.

I’m going bear hunting in the spring. Assuming that I am successful I will probably just use the Wildlife Gallery since they own the tannery

Seems like my crate from last year's hunt should be here, according to the Airway Bill the crate should have arrived in GA today. I'm waiting on Coppersmith to contact me.
