Services & Process

Four Season Taxidermy's name reflects a full calendar of services. Deer season brings in shoulder and pedestal mounts, while spring turkey season generates demand for strutter mounts and fan displays. Pheasant hunting is enormous in southwestern Minnesota, and a well-done rooster mount captures every detail of that bird's colorful plumage. Fish mounts from local lakes and the Minnesota River system round out the year, covering species like walleye, bass, and catfish that anglers in this region regularly pursue.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you mount a pheasant from this past season if I froze it right away?
Yes, a properly frozen pheasant can be mounted successfully. Wrap it in a plastic bag without compressing the feathers too much, and freeze it as soon as possible after the hunt to preserve color and feather condition.
What does a turkey strutter mount involve?
A strutter mount shows the turkey in its full display posture, with tail fanned and wings slightly dropped, which is the classic look most hunters want to preserve. It requires careful feather arrangement and a lot of detail work, but it produces a dramatic finished piece.
How do I know which mount style is right for my deer?
It mostly comes down to the size of the rack, your display space, and your budget. Shoulder mounts are the most popular and work in most rooms, while pedestal mounts work better when you want a freestanding piece that shows off all angles of a big rack.
Do you work on smaller game like squirrels or rabbits?
Many taxidermists will work on small game, though it's worth calling ahead to confirm. Small mammal mounts can be surprisingly detailed and make unique display pieces for collectors and young hunters proud of their first harvest.
What's the best way to transport a fish for mounting?
Keep the fish wet and cool immediately after catching it, and get it to the taxidermist or freeze it as soon as you can. Lay it flat to avoid bending the fins, and photograph it from both sides before anything happens, since those photos help the taxidermist match colors accurately.
Do you offer habitat displays or just standard mounts?
Habitat displays add natural elements like rocks, driftwood, grass, or water features to create a scene around the mount. Not every studio offers them, but it's worth asking if you want something more immersive than a standard wall or pedestal mount.
