i am NOT happy with the quality of the work done! i've seen mounts done that look twice as good! i paid good money for this thing, and now what? can it be saved by a real taxidermist?

Yes it can be redone, but the cape is useless. Nearly any good taxidermist can remount this, but it will be more expensive than the first time because he will need to buy a cape. Good luck. | |||

You might consider taking some responsibilty for your selection of a taxidermist. | |||

Looks like he ran into a brick wall. I would not accept this without some return of funds or lots of really bad advertising for this guy. Sorry your taxi guy didnt help you remember the trophy. Now, I fear all you will remember is the headache. Frank | |||

he did my elk, which i like...  i know the deer was funny looking to start, but his eyes, aren't quite right. i think his big old roman nose came through pretty well.

Did he do your cape buffalo too?  Jerry Huffaker State, National and World Champion Taxidermist | |||

Looks like someone cut it's throat enough to almost de-capitate it and if that's the case I'd say the taxidermist did the best he could with what he had ... otherwise it looks like crap and I'd be unhappy too. And I think the elk looks like something done in the 20's. DB Bill aka Bill George | |||

Jerry, is this a McKenzie form that has been altered? Can you use this on my two Buffalo? That would be great. Can this be done as a pedestal? Or a cut-away wall mount? Thanks. | |||

Jack, it's not nice to show-off that you can afford a taxidermist with the ability to make the animal look symmetrical. ____________________________ If you died tomorrow, what would you have done today ... 2018 Zimbabwe - Tuskless w/ Nengasha Safaris 2011 Mozambique - Buffalo w/ Mashambanzou Safaris | |||
