Fur Fins & Feathers

Fur Fins and Feathers is a taxidermy studio in Sauk Rapids, Minnesota, sitting just across the Mississippi River from St. Cloud in Benton County. The name covers the three main categories of taxidermy work: mammals, fish, and birds, which tells you this is a full-service shop that doesn't specialize in just one type of specimen. Central Minnesota is serious hunting and fishing country, with strong whitetail populations, productive lake fishing, and some of the best pheasant and turkey hunting in the state. A studio in Sauk Rapids is well-positioned to serve both the greater St. Cloud area and the rural communities stretching in every direction.

The studio's name makes the service list clear: fur covers deer, bear, coyote, and other mammal mounts including shoulder, pedestal, and full body options. Fins means fish work, which in central Minnesota includes walleye, muskie, northern pike, and bass taken from the many lakes throughout Benton, Stearns, and Morrison counties. Feathers means bird mounts spanning turkey, pheasant, grouse, and migratory waterfowl, each requiring different handling and posing techniques. Skull cleaning rounds out the offerings, giving hunters a clean, displayable skull without the time investment of a full shoulder mount.

Fur Fins and Feathers serves Sauk Rapids, St. Cloud, and the surrounding central Minnesota region including communities in Benton, Stearns, Morrison, and Sherburne counties. Hunters and anglers from across the lakes region north of St. Cloud regularly travel to studios in the Sauk Rapids area for trophy work.
