One of the largest complaints about taxidermy is that it takes up entirely too much room. Technology and innovations in taxidermy has allowed us to maximize our available space. We can now have animals coming out of the ceiling, corners, and furniture.
· New mounts have been made that utilize corner space so that a full wall does not have to be wasted.
· Pedestal mounts have developed into a common practice. With pedestal mounts there is no need for wall mounts. The mount can be placed anywhere there is floor space.
· Skull and rack mounts are also making leaps in innovation. It is now possible to camouflage an entire deer skull with the latest 3-D camo (http://www.camodipkit.com/).
The boundaries have surely been broken down. On your next mount make sure to take a picture of the location where it will reside in your home. Take it to your taxidermist and begin your search of the newest space saving innovations. We would love to hear about any of your latest space saving taxidermy purchases or ones you have seen.
I always wondered why someone would take up that much space with a stuffed animal. But now that I have learned how to utilize space I might end up getting one myself!

I think it's a great idea to take a picture of the space you want it in to the taxidermist. It will really help them get you what you want.

Im not much of a hunter, actually ive never hunted in my life. I like the idea for the table in the corner with a mount on it. Extreme hunters would go nuts for this!

This is very interesting to me because my whole family hunts and we all have mounted animlas hanging on our walls. Great post.
