With safari season upon us Top of Texas Taxidermy is here for you. We are a USDA certified, full service, custom taxidermy studio with years of experience in the industry and specifically with African and exotic animals. We are right here in Texas and ship coast to coast. You don’t have to settle with sub par work that is done 5,000 miles away. Give me a shout, I’d love to personally help bring your cherished memories back to life.

There you go again Erik, teasing. All those awesome pics in one post. Too bad you are almost as far away in NA as possible. Now if you were a CFIA taxidermist say in Vancouver that would be good, hell I would work for you real cheap for continued experience.

I am still at a loss how you hide all the rips, cuts and huge scares on your African mounts. Last eland I did, skin had major shrinkage when drying, the dam sewed as tight as possible cuts still pulled/opened a little, even with my best epoxy and paint fixes they were still visible.

You know I enjoy your taxidermy done pics. Maybe tease me/us with an armadillo?

Thanks

Mark
 
Wonderful work there. I always enjoy your taxidermy pics, top notch for sure!
 
I have to brag about Erik & ToT for the excellent work on my EC trophies I got with KMG Safaris! The caracal-blue duiker combo shown above is mine. They also did a really nice mount of my MX Goulds turkey. Some more pics are below.

@gebo824 thank you sir and thank you for letting me run with those animals. That was a lot of fun and I love it that you love them!

Thank you very much! I really appreciate your kind words.
If you ever have any questions or need help call me anytime, I’d be glad to help you if I can.
 
Thank you Mark! Looks like you had a fantastic trip
 
That beest pedestal is awesome!
 
Man, that’s a good looking Cape buffalo! Can’t wait to see how it looks in the house.

Good morning. I'll take all of them actually. Whats the next step? Thanks, Derek
Have a look af our latest post on the biggest roan i ever guided on!


I realize how hard the bug has bit. I’m on the cusp of safari #2 and I’m looking to plan #3 with my 11 year old a year from now while looking at my work schedule for overtime and computing the math of how many shifts are needed….

I'd like to get some too.

My wife (a biologist, like me) had to have a melanoma removed from her arm last fall.

Hallo Marius- do you have possibilities for stags in September during the roar? Where are your hunting areas in Romania?
