About A Lasting Memory Taxidermy

A Lasting Memory Taxidermy is based in Englewood, Colorado, a city just south of Denver with easy access to both the Front Range mountains and the eastern plains hunting grounds. The name reflects an approach focused on preserving the emotional significance of a hunt, not just the animal itself. Englewood's location puts this studio within reach of a large metro customer base, including hunters who travel into the Rockies for elk and mule deer each season. It's a convenient drop-off point for sportsmen returning from trips into the high country.

Services & Process

A Lasting Memory Taxidermy likely handles the full body mounts, shoulder mounts, and bird work that Colorado hunters and collectors regularly need. Full body mounts are the most involved option, requiring detailed attention to muscle form, skin positioning, and habitat integration for a truly lifelike result. Bird mounts, whether for a wild turkey, pheasant, or waterfowl, demand precise feather arrangement and realistic eye placement. The studio's name suggests a focus on quality finishing details that make the final piece feel like a genuine keepsake rather than a generic wall decoration.

Service Area

A Lasting Memory Taxidermy serves customers throughout Englewood and the broader Denver metro area, including Littleton, Centennial, and Aurora. Hunters and anglers coming off trips into the Rockies or returning from eastern plains hunts will find the Englewood location easy to reach from major routes like US-285 and C-470.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you mount a fish using just a photo if I already ate the catch?
Yes, reproduction mounts are made from fiberglass blanks painted to match your specific fish, and they only require measurements and good photos. This option is actually popular because reproductions don't shrink, fade, or deteriorate the way skin mounts can over decades.
What types of birds can be mounted, and do you handle waterfowl?
Most taxidermists handle a wide range of birds including ducks, geese, wild turkey, pheasant, and grouse. Waterfowl require careful feather cleaning and positioning, so bring the bird in frozen and unfired from up-close shots when possible to preserve feather integrity.
How do I know if my deer cape is still usable after sitting overnight?
A taxidermist can assess the cape for slippage, which is when hair begins to pull away from the skin due to bacterial damage. If you kept it cool and salted or refrigerated it quickly, it may still be fine, but the studio will let you know during drop-off.
Do you offer habitat displays for trophy mounts?
Many taxidermists offer habitat bases and panels that incorporate natural-looking materials like driftwood, grasses, or rock to complement the mount. These displays add context to the piece and create a more immersive presentation for home or office settings.
Is a full body mount worth the extra cost over a shoulder mount?
Full body mounts cost significantly more and require more wall or floor space, but they're a strong choice for exceptional trophies or animals with a unique story behind the hunt. Most hunters opt for shoulder mounts for deer and elk and reserve full body work for bears, predators, or prize bucks.
How should I store my trophy while waiting for pickup after completion?
The studio will notify you when your mount is ready, and you shouldn't leave it sitting in storage too long since dust and humidity can affect the finished piece. When you pick it up, transport it carefully to avoid pressure on ears, antlers, or feathers during the drive home.
