Happy New Year from Taxidermy Talk
Another year in the books—and another season of early mornings, cold hands, sharp knives, and long nights in the shop.
At Taxidermy Talk, we’re proud to be part of a trade built on skill, patience, and respect for the animals we work with. Taxidermy isn’t flashy, and it isn’t easy. It’s earned—one hide at a time.
This past year was about sharing real, field-tested knowledge. No shortcuts. No guesswork. Just proven techniques that help you do better work, avoid costly mistakes, and turn out mounts you can stand behind.
Looking Ahead
In the year ahead, we’re doubling down on what matters:
-
Straightforward taxidermy advice from people who do the work
-
Practical shop tips that save time and prevent problems
-
Honest discussion about tools, materials, and methods that actually work
Whether you’ve mounted thousands of animals or you’re still learning your way around a fleshing beam, our goal stays the same: to keep taxidermy knowledge strong and passed on the right way.
Thanks to every taxidermist who takes pride in the craft and puts in the hours when no one’s watching.
Here’s to a New Year full of clean capes, solid forms, tight stitches, and finished mounts you’re proud to hang on the wall.
Happy New Year. Get back to work.
