I'm going to Namibia for the first time to hunt plains game... I am planning on European mounts for all my animals except for my Kudu or Gemsbok... What are the going rates for an animal of this size? Also, for a zebra head-to-tail hide only to be done as a wall-hanging? Namibia or USA? Thank you from a first-timer! | ||

Please let me be the first to advise you to have it all done by a USA based studio. ~Ann   | |||

Let me be the second. I have no dog in this fight, but having spent 17 years in the professional Taxidermy trade, I have a trained eye for quality AND crap. It's your money, so spend it wisely. If you want to PM me I'll give you some recommendations. If you want to whole story, call me.

Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running...... "If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you." | |||

Let me advise that where ever you have the work done do not let price be the driving factor. Check out the taxidermist work personally to judge the quality of his work and if possible talk with some of his clients. Hope you have a great trip | |||
