About Knight's Wildlife Studio

Knight's Wildlife Studio is based in Dublin, Georgia, the seat of Laurens County in the heart of middle Georgia. Dublin sits in a region where hunting is woven into daily life, with pine flatwoods and river bottomland providing excellent habitat for whitetail deer, wild hog, and waterfowl. The studio's name, Wildlife Studio, signals a focus on the artistic side of taxidermy, not just preservation. Clients in this part of Georgia can call at (478) 275-4112 to discuss their projects with a taxidermist who understands what middle Georgia game actually looks like.

Services & Process

Knight's Wildlife Studio handles deer and big game shoulder mounts, a multi-step process that includes skinning, fleshing, preserving the hide, and building a finished piece on a quality foam form. Wild hog mounts are a natural fit for middle Georgia, where feral pig populations are high and full-body or shoulder mounts of trophy boars are popular among local hunters. Waterfowl mounts, including wood duck and mallard, require careful feather cleaning, positioning, and protective finishing to capture the iridescent colors birds are known for. Fish mounts, both skin mounts and replicas, are also available for bass anglers fishing the Oconee River system.

Service Area

Knight's Wildlife Studio serves Dublin and the surrounding Laurens County region, including clients from Soperton, Eastman, and Vidalia. Hunters from across middle Georgia's pine belt make the drive to Dublin for quality work, and the studio's central location makes it convenient for a broad stretch of the state.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you mount a wild hog from a local hunt?
Yes, hog mounts are a popular request in middle Georgia given how common feral pigs are in the region. Shoulder mounts and full-body mounts are both options, and your taxidermist can help you decide which fits your space and budget.
What's the difference between a skin mount and a replica for fish?
A skin mount uses the actual fish skin stretched over a form, while a replica is cast from measurements and photos and painted to match the original fish. Replicas are often recommended for catch-and-release fish and hold up better over time without the risk of shrinkage or odor.
How do I transport a waterfowl to the studio without damaging it?
Keep the bird dry and handle it as little as possible to avoid ruffling the feathers. Place it in a plastic bag and freeze it if you can't get it to the studio the same day.
Do you work with museums or schools for educational displays?
Some taxidermists in the region do work with educational institutions for habitat displays and specimen mounts, so it's worth asking directly. These projects are often more involved and may require a separate consultation and timeline.
Can I request a custom habitat base or background for my mount?
Many studios offer habitat displays that incorporate natural materials like driftwood, rocks, or faux foliage to give the mount more context and visual depth. Discuss this during your initial consultation so the taxidermist can plan for it from the start.
What happens if I'm not happy with the finished mount?
A reputable studio will work with you to address any specific concerns before you take the piece home. Clear communication during the drop-off and form-selection process reduces the chance of surprises, so ask questions upfront.
