I am a friend and client to Taxidermy International and I read the comment you gave "Bad work in Joberg-Biggest Gun". I spoke to the person who handled your dip & pack and showed me your file, well if I must say there are 2 sides of the story. They took a little longer than should of been (4 months) because of the Civet Cat you shot withour a hunting permit. Before shooting a Civet Cat you and your PH must first apply for a cites permit to shoot it, that was never done. Taxidermy Int'l did the phoning around to the farmer to get the cites exception permit for it (not there job) because the PH was to busy in the USA and didn't have time. It was not because of Maria. They were instructed to mount it and to date they still have not received any permit for it nor have they received there payment. Correspondance from you to the taxidermist was zero. Yes the PH is no longer with them but that is another story.
