I have seen some downright ugly taxidermy, to the point its just funny. Some of it is old, or just intentional. Post up your pics, I thought this could be a fun thread.
This is NOT a taxidermist bashing thread, if you have an issue with a taxi, leave their name out of it.
I'll start, found this on a trip through Canada earlier in the year.

I think this guy is just happy to see ya. :chuckle:

I don't think Phil Robertson would approve of that cat.......seems a little odd.... :chuckle:

This one is mass produced for Wal-Mart :chuckle:

I don't have a picture of it but every time I eat at The Brick in Roslyn I shake my head at the train wreck elk mount. Much like the tables/chairs/decor in the family seating section they need to redo that thing or throw it out! :o

:chuckle:

I recieved this full body Virginia whitetail mount as a gag gift on April fools day. My mom set it up in the bushes in my yard. She purchased it at an auction in Idaho. Bucky and I are going to have a lot of fun by the highway on modern deer season opener.

Something's a little fishy.

here's a cute one.

These are great. I have one to add, but all my pictures of it got erased when my computer crashed. Next time I am up in Kettle Falls at my mom's house, I'll take a few pics and post. Until then, it'll be fun to see what else everyone else comes up with...
-
There were mounts in the Hitchin' Post in Republic and the old Yardbirds in Chehalis that were cow elk heads with antlers mounted to them. :chuckle: I wish that I had a pic.

My very first bobcat I ever shot. Boy was I pissed to say the least.

Ok which taxi on here would like to take on this challenge? Think I have a fox squirrel skin from sc that would be awesome to do this with. Or maybe a raccoon....

It might as well been.............I drilled it with my 22-250 at 10 yards.

Tagging for a good laugh.
Next time I see some out here I will get some photos. You see some really old funny ones from time to time.

Whats the story here? That guy looks familiar.
-
Steve,
This mount was an auction item at the benefit for Adam of Titan Outdoors in Olympia.
It had a deer cape, bull rack, bear teeth and crazy eyes.
I don't know who the guy is but he runs with the local country musician Jonathan Harris.
-
The mule deer with raghorn elk antlers is trippy but CAMPMEAT's bobcat (a legitimate attempt) is friggin' hilarious!
-
Agree. Campmeat's bobcat has me in tears...
-
My first deer and my first go at DIY taxidermy! Didn't pin the lips right so I improvised as it dried.
-
Was a bum deal exp getting my first set of birds back. They were in primo condition when I took them in. They came out looking as I they were mounted in the thirties.

Yes was very hard to not just leave it there and walk away. I am so grateful for this site and for finding your shop. What a world of difference. And I would t even put those in the house, in fact I took them to work and hung in our break room just to get rid of them!

Cat race from the game Skyrim. Shocking resemblance lol.

Amen to that. I also noticed several items there that were likely illegal to sell. Ship it across state lines and its a federal offense (Lacey Act). Even if it looked good, I'd never consider buying taxidermy on ebay.

Eating oysters? Well, I guess that is the natural food source for albino nutria

My dad actually has a pronghorn butt mounted like that. only there are yellow eyes on the haunches. With the tail hanging down it looks like an owl face.
My mom was less than pleased to see that come home... it hangs in the garage.
