About Ingle Taxidermy

Ingle Taxidermy is based in Mountain Pine, Arkansas, a small community tucked near Lake Ouachita and the Ouachita National Forest. That location matters. Hunters and anglers throughout Garland County have long relied on local taxidermists who understand the regional game and the pride that comes with a hard-earned trophy. If you've tagged a deer, landed a trophy bass, or brought home a bird from the Arkansas bottomlands, a nearby studio means shorter transport times and better care for your specimen.

Services & Process

Ingle Taxidermy handles the full range of work you'd expect from an Arkansas-based studio, including deer shoulder mounts, full body mammal mounts, and fish reproductions or skin mounts for bass and other native species. Bird mounts are a natural fit for the region given the duck hunting culture along the Arkansas River corridor. Skull cleaning, antler mounting, and custom pedestal work round out the typical offerings. Whether you want a simple wall mount or a more detailed habitat display, the studio can accommodate different budgets and presentation styles.

Service Area

Ingle Taxidermy serves customers throughout Mountain Pine and the broader Garland County area. Hunters and anglers from Hot Springs, Jessieville, and other communities around Lake Ouachita regularly bring their work to local studios in this part of central Arkansas.

Frequently Asked Questions

How soon after harvesting my deer should I bring in the cape?
You should bring your cape in as quickly as possible, ideally within 24 hours if it hasn't been properly frozen. Heat and bacteria break down hair and skin fast, especially during early Arkansas deer season when temperatures are still warm.
Can you mount a fish I caught at Lake Ouachita?
Yes, bass, crappie, and other native species from the Ouachita area are common requests. You can bring in the actual fish for a skin mount or provide good measurements and photos for a reproduction, which holds up better over time.
How long does a deer shoulder mount typically take?
Most deer shoulder mounts take anywhere from four months to a year, depending on the studio's current workload. Busy studios in Arkansas often see a surge after rifle season opens, so dropping off early or during off-season can sometimes speed things up.
What's the difference between a shoulder mount and a full body mount?
A shoulder mount covers the head, neck, and upper chest of the animal and is by far the most common choice for deer. A full body mount captures the entire animal in a posed position and costs significantly more in both materials and labor.
Do you handle bird mounts for duck hunters?
Duck mounts are popular in Arkansas given the state's reputation as a top waterfowl destination. A good bird mount requires careful handling in the field, so it's worth asking your taxidermist for tips on wrapping and freezing your bird before you bring it in.
What should I expect to pay for a basic deer shoulder mount in Arkansas?
Prices vary by studio and form quality, but most Arkansas taxidermists charge somewhere in the range of $400 to $700 for a standard whitetail shoulder mount. Custom poses, habitat bases, or premium forms can push the price higher.
