Wonder what a 4ft $2200 dollar rug looks like
Maybe some one should find out who this guy is and maybe report him to the local Taxidermy association and possiably approach him and tell him that this is un called for....THAT IS MESSED UP...!

I agree that taxidermist get every little bit of what they deserve, BUT.....and i say BUT! There is no excuse for someone charging $2200 bucks for a 4 ft bear....That is uncalled for....and if any taxidermist wants to sit at that guys side and say that its ok what hes charging...Then im sorry that wrong! two three hundred dollars difference maybe...i can see that...But seriously..when it comes down to it, its not another taxidermist thats gonna help the customer make the final decision...ITS THE CUSTOMER....and the only way a customer can make a well educated decision is if the taxidermist is truthful....Luckily his cost was so rediculously expensive that it raised a red flag and the guy i hope took it else where...You wont see me charging that much for a rug. Kuduman...I understood what you where throwing....And i was just saying there should be some kind of code of conduct....Not to screw people.....Taxidermy is a hard job to do sucessfully yes(as bucklucky said it is time consuming and expensive...and We as taxidermist ear that money), but holy cow....i hope that guy gets to sleep every night nowing that he is litterally raping someone for a 4ft bear rug. It really honestly is uncalled for...Guess i can say im just suprised that more people on this site arent appolled anymore than they are.....Oh well....
