Title: Elk cape tanning
Post by: Nash on October 09, 2013, 10:17:04 AM

So I want to get my elk cape tanned with the hair off. Will most taxidermists do this? Any recommendations where to go?

I think most taxidermists just send them to their preferred tannery but...I've never heard of such a thing?

Your cape or your hide? Big difference. Taxidermists will send them off to be tanned "hair off". There aren't many places in the west that do hair off tanning. Get a hold of the taxidermist of your choice and they can help you with it.
