I am addicted to these shows. Taxidermy in Alaska
« on: April 11, 2011, 09:43:17 PM »
Found another one that I am glued to.  Taxidermy in Alaska, Taxidermy USA and Swamp People.

Anyone had a chance to watch these?

The Alaska one had a good one fixing up a Polar bear and replacing the snout with that of a brown bear and bleaching it.  Not perfect but way better than it was.  A $2,400.00 restoration.
Cut em!
It's not the shells!  It's the shooter!

Swamp People and Mounted in Alaska are really great shows.
 
Taxidermy USA is one of the worst shows I have ever seen.  Full of misinformation and unrealistic time frames for mount completions.   I mean seriously, 3 days to mount and complete a Life Size Griz?   :bash:

I swear it took them about 30 minutes on the show without commercials.   :chuckle:  Definately interesting stuff.  You have the true trophy guys up north and a few that mount anything that moves in the south.  Do you think the guys in the south save the meat for family dinners?   :chuckle:
