I had a caribou done at Hilde Wildlife Studio. I don't live in Michigan anymore but I think they are still in Clarkston. They did a nice mount for me, I didn't ask for removable antlers but I am sure they can do that.
They were also one of the few taxidermists I have used that completed the work 'on time'. Bob Taylor is skilled at about any animal. At one of the local SCI shows he had a gorgeous lesser kudu on display a few years ago.

I have had Hildes do some work for me and never again! Years ago, they had a great reputation. I bought some work from them at a S.C.I. dinner and wish I never had. My kudu nose is all scrunched up, the ears do not look right, it looks terrible. I now use Nancarrows, north of Saginaw. If you can, stop in and take a look. Probably the nicest place in Mi. A person can spend hours in there looking at their work. You won't be disapointed.
