Sending home a clean mount with a customer starts with a not so glorious wet mess. But this step helps ensure no grease, blood or other ick is on the final piece.

A young man's first deer.
First archery success.
First buck!!!

If you have followed me long, you know getting youth in the outdoors and excited about being there is something I pride in. And the smile on his face when he saw his buck, that made it worth that!

Congratulations Jonathan from Little Rack Taxidermy!!

Would you have guessed that the photo from Monday was a black bear?!?!

Thank you Jeff for this unique and educational challenge!!

Unlike many of the other mammals I have taken in, I received only the pelt and skull. So that meant learning to read and apply measurements taken from the tanned cape and apply those to a premade form, one that had many, many alterations to fit the hide. Generally, I have the carcass and use that as a reference for sizing and can get the altered\custom form very close to the original size before ever test fitting. Not this time!

I'm not sure how many bears I have seen in real life, ok really how few, but to work hands on with one........meant lots of watching videos and photo references!!! And thank goodness to the friends of the taxidermy world, I reached out to those I know whom are well versed in bears to increase my knowledge to apply to the final piece. (Thank you!)

Additionally, the base is custom made. Honestly, this is not the base I originally made. It was ok, but I knew it could be better. Building a habitat does not just happen in the blink of an eye. Building a habitat can be a masterpiece in itself, regardless of size. This one presented it's own unique challenges and it can only go up from here. This was the first real habitat I have built as well. Thank you to one of my boys for the extra set of hands and eyes !!! Mom appreciates it!

Thank you again Jeff for trusting me with her!!!!

Here is to my FIRST EVER bear!!!
