Prep for the Taxidermist

Job 12:7-10
7"But ask the animals, and they will teach you, or the birds of the air, and they will tell you;
8 or speak to the earth, and it will teach you, or let the fish of the sea inform you.
9 Which of all these does not know that the hand of the LORD has done this?
10 In his hand is the life of every creature and the breath of all mankind.

Tanning

Who does our tanning? The Wildlife Gallery Our commercial tannery has been serving the needs of taxidermists since 1994. Their dedication to quality, timeliness, and unsurpassed customer service has made them the industry leader in fur dressing.

Keep in mind that we cannot guarantee any tanning process as so many factors are out of our control. Problems with slippage, splits, rips, or weak spots can occur on hides with bruises, poor field handling, advanced bacterial growth, pre-existing disease, etc. Our tanneries usually notify us of pre-existing problems, but some problems cannot be detected prior to the tanning process. Just be aware that problems can occur, and you can help prevent most of these issues in the field.

You can help by:

Calling the taxidermist before your hunt for special handling instructions or questions.
Salting hides and capes in the field before transporting. Keeping items cool (take advantage of shade and ice).
Cleaning up any excess blood from the fur.
Not dragging an animal (this will damage the hide/fur and cause bruising). Handle with care!
