Boondocks Taxidermy

Boondocks Taxidermy is located in Clinton, Montana, a small community along the Clark Fork River east of Missoula in the Blackfoot-Clearwater corridor. The name fits the location perfectly. Clinton is deep in hunting country, sitting close to the Blackfoot River drainage, the Sapphire Mountains, and Lolo National Forest, all of which draw serious big game hunters every fall. A taxidermist operating out here is serving a clientele that hunts hard and cares deeply about the quality of their finished mounts. This is the kind of shop built for the local hunting community, not the casual walk-in.

Boondocks Taxidermy focuses on the mounts most relevant to the game that's actually hunted in this part of Montana. Shoulder mounts for deer, elk, and pronghorn are the bread and butter, with attention to natural posing and accurate skin detail. Full body mounts are also available for predators like mountain lion or black bear, which are regularly harvested in the Lolo National Forest drainages. Fish mounts from the nearby Clark Fork and Blackfoot Rivers, including brown trout and rainbow trout, are another strong part of the work here. Rug mounts for bear are also a popular option.

Boondocks Taxidermy serves Clinton and the surrounding Missoula County area, including Turah, Bonner, and the Blackfoot Valley communities. Hunters coming off public land in the Lolo National Forest or the Sapphire Mountains won't have to drive far. The studio is positioned on the main corridor between Missoula and Drummond.
