I have seen in the news about poachers losing there guns, toys, and mounts, and wondered what they do with the mounts they seize?  Are they sold at police auctoins or donated to private clubs?  Just kinda curios on that, after reading an article about elk poachers, and all the mounts that were taken from them.

Another one I started thinking about, has a taxidermeist had a customer not pay for a mount that has been made, and what does the tasicermest do with the mount after that?

Depending on what type of animal it is, I have a contract that after 60 days it becomes my possesion and I am allowed to sell it to recover my costs. You can not do this with migratory birds like duck and geese, that is why most taixdermists require you to pay money up front in case you are a no show on picking them up.
