Hupp’s Taxidermy

Hupp's Taxidermy serves East Palestine, Ohio, a Columbiana County community in the far eastern corner of the state, just miles from the Pennsylvania and West Virginia borders. This tri-state region is well-known for strong whitetail deer populations, and hunters from all three states often cross county and state lines to work with trusted local taxidermists. East Palestine itself sits in rolling farmland and woodland terrain that consistently produces quality game. Hupp's is the kind of small-town operation that builds its reputation through the quality of each individual mount rather than volume advertising.

Whitetail deer work is almost certainly the backbone of this shop's business, given Columbiana County's reputation as a productive hunting county in eastern Ohio. Shoulder mounts involve careful skin preparation, quality tanning, and precise form work to capture the natural musculature and expression of the deer. Skull cleaning and antler mounting are offered as a more economical alternative, producing clean, striking display pieces that work well in a hunting cabin or home office. Bear, wild boar, and coyote mounts are also relevant in this part of Ohio where diverse game species are actively hunted across the tri-state region.

Hupp's Taxidermy is based in East Palestine and serves Columbiana County along with nearby communities in Mahoning County and across the Pennsylvania state line. Hunters from Salem, Leetonia, and Lisbon make the short drive over, as do customers from western Pennsylvania who prefer working with an Ohio-side shop.
