I have specialized in big game taxidermy since 1979, along with over 38 years of experience studying wildlife anatomy and behavior. Having the good fortune to travel and hunt many of the North America states including Alaska, also Canada, Russia/Siberia, South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, and Tanzania.This has allowed me to observe many animals first hand while in their native habitat, giving me the ability to recreate wildlife in exacting details
