How much would it cost to get a full body Red Fox mount?
I shot a red fox this morning and am thinking about getting a full body mount. About how much would this cost me?
I am a long time Alaskan hunter and trapper.
First - do NOT skin it. Do not gut it. Put it in a plastic bag, push all the air out, and freeze it solid. Unless you have the knowledge and skills to case skin this fox, turn the lips, ears, footie pads and leave an extra 2" of colon at the rectum - it might not be able to be mounted.
If you skin the animal yourself and have it tanned - expect to pay $475 to $600 for a mount.
If you do not skin it and present it to the taxidermist as a frozen solid fresh kill - he/she will skin it, tan it, and mount it for $375 to $450. Because the taxidermist won't have to waste a day to fix your skinning mistakes - you should get a $150 discount.
Are you sure you want it mounted? I say this because it is hard to find a place in the house where it can stand, look natural, not get in the way or gather dust. You are much much better off having it just tanned and turned into a wall hanger, or, if it is truly a good sized fox - have it rugged out. This way it is one the wall, out of the way, look nice - and your wife or mom won't be bitching at you every month about how much trouble it is to dust and keep clean. You also won't have to worry about your dog or cat sneaking up and chewing it.
When my friend and I took a 8 1/2 foot grizzly bear at Sitka right at sunset we knew it was an awesome bear. Huge head, beautiful fur........ but we were at the high tide mark in the dark and didn't want to ruin it skinning by the one little flashlight we had. We decided to bring it back whole! Took us a full hour to get it in my 16 foot Boston Whaler, then wait another hour for the tide to come up enough so the boat would float off with the 1,000 lbs of extra weight. It was a very overloaded boat and slow trip back to the dock. With the boat and bear on the trailer, we used boards and slid the whole bear from the boat into my friends pick up. A few cups of coffee and a quick shower - it was now 9am and we brought the whole bear to the local taxidermist......... the old guy was so thrilled to see an entire bear that had not been cut or ruined by a hunter - I thought he was going to rug it for free! LOL. He gave us allot of pointers and told us exactly what he did, and did not, want us messing with.
On the way home we decided to swing by where we worked. Many of our buddies had been out bear hunting for weeks, mostly living in primitive conditions, eating out of tin cans , being eaten by mosquitoes. Told 'em we had just popped it on the way into work......... and there it was whole in the pick up. Man, talk about some honked off hunters. LOL
Because we were able to skin that bear in my garage and the slice down the stomach was 100% true - nothing had to be trimmed from the left or right when it was rugged. This 8 1/2 foot bear rugged out the same size as a 9 foot and 9 1/2 foot bear.
Hope this helps
