Thanks for listening! There is some good info out there on this topic already, but I feel like we covered a lot of ground in this episode that might not be the first things people think of if they've taken a trophy animal and they plan to take that animal to a taxidermist. Especially, if its the first animal or two they have taken in for taxidermy. Personally, I didn't really know any of this info until I took in a few animals, and I'm still learning. In my opinion, Chad is a world class taxidermist and a real artist, and he has 30+ years of experience to draw from. He has seen a lot of the mistakes people make that create problems for the taxidermist and we talk about how to avoid those before they ever become issues.

Very cool. Looking forward to listening to this.

Give it a listen, I'd bet there are a few things even experienced hunters and taxidermy fans could pick up in this episode.
