About Wildlife Taxidermist Studio

Wildlife Taxidermist Studio is based in Greenwood, Mississippi, situated in the heart of the Mississippi Delta where waterfowl hunting and bass fishing are practically local traditions. The Delta's agricultural landscape draws massive numbers of ducks and geese each season, making waterfowl mounts a natural specialty for studios in this area. Greenwood sits along the Yazoo River and is surrounded by flooded timber and rice fields that produce serious trophy birds. A taxidermist here sees a wide variety of work that reflects the region's unique hunting culture.

Services & Process

Waterfowl mounts are a natural strength for a Delta-area studio, covering mallards, pintails, teal, and Canada geese in a range of flying or resting poses. Bass and crappie fish mounts are also common requests from Yazoo River and nearby lake anglers. Deer hunters throughout Leflore County bring in whitetail capes for shoulder mounts that display the heavy-antlered bucks this part of Mississippi routinely produces. Bird mounts can include everything from single ducks to multi-bird habitat displays that recreate a moment from the blind.

Service Area

Wildlife Taxidermist Studio serves Greenwood and the surrounding Leflore County area, with customers coming in from across the Mississippi Delta region. Hunters and anglers from Indianola, Itta Bena, and other Delta communities are well within reasonable driving distance. The studio's central Delta location makes it accessible to a wide base of serious outdoor sportsmen.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I properly care for a duck or goose before bringing it in?
Don't pluck, gut, or wash the bird. Place it in a plastic bag without bending the feathers, and freeze it if you can't get to the studio within a day or two. Thawing and refreezing degrades feather quality, so try to deliver it fresh or keep it frozen until your appointment.
Can multiple ducks be mounted together in a single display?
Yes, multi-bird habitat displays are a popular option that shows a small group of birds in a natural scene, sometimes with driftwood, marsh grass, or water elements. These displays cost more than a single mount but create a dramatic, gallery-style presentation.
What types of fish are commonly mounted in the Delta region?
Largemouth bass are the most common request, but crappie, catfish, and even bowfin get mounted by serious anglers. For catch-and-release fish, measurements and photos taken at the water's edge allow a replica to be made without harvesting the fish.
How long does a waterfowl mount typically take to complete?
Waterfowl mounts generally take 6 to 9 months depending on the studio's current order volume. Duck season in the Delta brings in a surge of work, so dropping off early in the season means your mount may come back before the next season opens.
Is a habitat display significantly more expensive than a standard mount?
Habitat displays do cost more because of the additional materials, design time, and custom base construction involved. The price difference varies based on complexity, but many hunters find the final result worth the investment for a truly memorable trophy.
Do you work with museums or educational institutions?
Many professional taxidermists do take on institutional projects, including display mounts for schools, nature centers, and museums. It's worth calling the studio directly to discuss the scope of the project and whether they have capacity for larger or multi-piece commissions.
