Services & Process

L&S Taxidermy handles the range of work you'd expect from a south Mississippi shop, including whitetail deer shoulder mounts built on quality foam forms with careful hide preparation and natural eye placement. Fish work is a regular part of the business here, given the Pearl River system and the proximity to Gulf Coast fishing grounds where redfish, speckled trout, and bass are common trophies. Waterfowl mounts appeal to hunters working the Mississippi Flyway, and full-body bird poses require careful feather positioning and accurate habitat matching. Antler mounting and skull cleaning round out the typical menu of services.

Service Area

L&S Taxidermy serves Carriere and the surrounding communities throughout Pearl River County. Customers from Picayune, Poplarville, and even across the Louisiana border come here for quality local taxidermy work. The shop's location near Highway 11 makes it accessible for hunters and fishermen throughout the region.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can L&S Taxidermy handle saltwater fish mounts?
Shops in the Carriere area regularly see saltwater species given the proximity to the Gulf Coast. Redfish, speckled trout, and flounder are commonly mounted, and a quick call to (601) 692-8183 will confirm what species they handle.
What poses are available for a whitetail deer mount?
Common poses include upright, semi-sneak, sneak, and turned neck positions, each giving the mount a different look on the wall. The taxidermist can show you examples or a catalog to help you pick what fits the space you have in mind.
Is a deposit required when I drop off a specimen?
Most taxidermists require a deposit, typically 50% of the total cost, when you bring in your specimen. This covers initial materials and holds your spot in the work queue.
How do I store a deer cape if I can't get to the shop immediately?
Freeze the cape as soon as possible if you're more than a day out from drop-off. Avoid leaving it in a warm truck or in water, as both speed up deterioration.
Do taxidermists near Carriere do duck and goose mounts?
Waterfowl work is common in this area given the active duck hunting culture along the Mississippi Flyway. Full-body mounts, flying poses, and wall plaques are all typical options depending on the shop.
How much does a deer shoulder mount usually cost in Mississippi?
Pricing varies by shop and mount style, but south Mississippi shoulder mounts typically range from $400 to $600 or more depending on complexity. Calling ahead with details about your deer will get you an accurate quote.
