This was my point. I see all the posts from Michelle and other taxidermists stating that they want capes and there are multiple posts of really nice bucks and bulls with the capes cut. I realize not everyone wants a head hanging in their house but the taxi's have a use for another part of the animals that we harvest and it just seems like it would be cool to get as many to them as we can since they are such a big part of the "community" here.
