Taxidermists can preserve an animal for display purposes by using a number of different tools and chemicals. Hunters frequently use taxidermists so they can showcase their recent kills, sometimes a pet owner might contact a taxidermist as well, so their pet can be preserved after it has died. Museums and zoos may also contact a taxidermist or use taxidermist supplies to preserve animals for use in exhibits. Taxidermists can usually preserve many different kinds of animals, including fish, sea mammals such as otter and seals, large mammals like bears and elk, as well as many different kinds of birds, such as eagles and turkey.

In your search for a reputable taxidermist (someone who prepares, stuffs, and mounts the skins of dead animals for display), contact a few different professionals to get an idea of hours, location, price, specialties, deals, tools used, and background. Some taxidermists specialize in one type of animal, such as moose or elk, while others specialize in a wide variety of animals, such as fish, bears, birds, deer, ducks, coyotes, turkeys, and other wildlife. If you are interested in becoming a taxidermist, check taxidermy websites to find out what is involved, what the licensing criteria are, safety precautions, hide tanning, stuffing, mounting, typical costs, turnaround times, education required, and guidelines on how to operate a taxidermy business. You can even learn how to tan a hide and other art techniques online by downloading or ordering videos or taking an online course. You’ll need the proper equipment, kits, parts, tan supplies, glass eyes, and tools to mount and stuff, so research the best brands and compare prices. If you like to hunt and need to hire a taxidermist, make appointments with a few different professionals in your area and get a feel for the professionalism of the business. Ask if the taxidermist has a website you can check out for more information, such as photos of antlers, trophy mounts, and testimonials. Find out if you can get lists of other hunters that have used that particular taxidermist in the past. Contact each to get a feel for satisfaction of service. Ask to take a look at the supplies and equipment, ensuring high quality of the product. Before choosing a taxidermy professional, be sure to research background, reputation in the business, location, prices, services, sales, products, and availability.
