Namibian Taxidermy and Trophy expediting
Part of the excitement of a safari is thinking about how you want to get things done and who you want to do it.

I did a piss poor job in 2005 of putting together my post safari logistics, in the end it ended up being a stinking turd at the culmination of a very bad safari.

Please post companies you have had quality work done by, and good expeditors.

In my recent experience (2013 safari), Namibia can be VERY slo-o-o-w in both taxidermy and shipping. And we had an on the ground expediter!

We were also caught up in a Caprivi hoof & mouth disease quarantine that lasted some 9 months! Namibian government screwed the pooch on that deal. Trophies damaged - Elephant ear chewed extensively by rats and hair slippage on Zebra hide. Poor show all around.

Good luck.

Although my information is somewhat dated, I can express my utmost satisfaction with the work done by Pam Foerster at International Air Cargo Services in Windhoek and, on this end, Maria Europa-Felix and Hunter International Brokerage Services in California. These two outfits made a good team for my dad and me after our safari in 2004. If they're still working together, I recommend you contact them.

Matt Mayers did a good job for me. I would recommend his service.
