In the world of taxidermy, a conflicting view is that in the absence of any published standards and criteria of performance, the public is left in the unfortunate circumstance of choosing a taxidermist without sufficient knowledge of what they are buying!

After investing a considerable amount of money in a hunting or fishing trip, it is important to you that your mounted trophy reflect the success of your trip. Is it really ethical or fair to subject yourself to the risk that an inexperienced or incompetent individual might possibly destroy your trophy? Such inexperienced or incompetent people can reek havoc with the clients as well as the image of the experience taxidermist that adheres to the highest standards.

Taxidermy is a wildlife art form and like any art medium, it should represent the artistic interpretation of the live animal. Not all artists have the same abilities to create or interpret the animal in a realistically convincing manner. To the taxidermy observer, some creations look exceptionally lifelike, while others tend to represent a lifeless or totally inaccurate animal pose. Taxidermy is much more than a mechanical approach to a craft. Its is an artistic recreation of the wildlife's natural history. Not all taxidermists have, nor can they ever acquire, the artistic part that separates the pure mechanical taxidermist from the taxidermy artist.
