Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a standard deer shoulder mount cost in Wisconsin?
Prices vary by studio, but most Wisconsin taxidermists charge between $500 and $800 for a standard whitetail shoulder mount. Custom poses, larger forms for mature bucks, or premium finishing options can push costs higher.
Can Bladl's Wildlife Taxidermy handle waterfowl like Canada geese or mallards?
Waterfowl mounts are a common request from hunters in the Dane County area, where goose and duck hunting is popular along the river bottoms and marshes. A good taxidermist will position the wings and set the eyes to create a natural, lifelike result that holds up for years.
Do I need an appointment to drop off a trophy animal?
Calling ahead before you drop off is always a good idea, especially during the November and December hunting season when most studios are at peak volume. Many taxidermists appreciate a heads-up so they can prepare paperwork and ensure someone is available to evaluate your specimen.
Will my mount look exactly like the animal I brought in?
A skilled taxidermist uses reference photos, quality forms, and detailed finishing to get as close as possible to the animal's natural appearance. The quality of the original skin and how well it was cared for in the field also plays a big role in the final result.
What species besides deer do taxidermists in Windsor, WI commonly mount?
Beyond whitetail deer, local taxidermists regularly work on wild turkey, Canada geese, ducks, coyote, and various freshwater fish. Black bear work is also common from hunters who travel north in Wisconsin and bring their bears to a trusted local studio.
Is it legal to have certain animals mounted in Wisconsin?
Most game animals harvested legally in Wisconsin can be mounted, but you'll need to retain your harvest tag and present it with the animal when you drop it off. Protected species, including most songbirds and raptors, cannot be mounted without specific federal permits.
