Do you have a license to do this work?
We are currently licensed as both a Taxidermist and Fur Dealer. All of our animals are legally and responsibly obtained.
Where do you source the animals from?
They all come from different places. Many die from illness or injury in farms, zoos, nature preserves or forests, some are from other taxidermists, and many are hunted. They are NOT hunted for the purpose of taxidermy or for our purposes specifically. Most of the materials we work with would otherwise be thrown away or wasted. It is important to us that no part of any animal is wasted and so we preserve them. They are hunted in a system which was created to protect species. Many people we source from hunt in areas where animals are overpopulating and starving to death because the local ecosystem doesn't have enough resources to support the high populations, or a part of the population becomes infected with life threatening illness so the sick ones are hunted in order to keep the rest of the population healthy. The others are hunted in healthy environments which serves to maintain these environments as healthy. Hunting is well regulated and effective in ensuring a healthy wildlife population. 100% of the money hunters pay in licenses, tags and stamps goes directly to the department of fish and wildlife. This is almost 200 million dollars annually which is used to maintain and protect the ecosystems that we hold so dear. On the fish and wildlife website they state that this money is the primary source of funding for the majority of wildlife conservation. We urge you to do your own research as well! We make it a priority to NEVER buy from poachers or people who are disrespectful to the environment or animals. Sustainability is something we are extremely passionate about. We do not claim to be "ethically sourced" because we respect the fact that everybody has their own set of ethics and don't want to assume everybody shares ours. We believe that a straight forward explanation on sourcing is far more honest.
