The Process of Antler Taxidermy

The process of preparing antlers and horns for taxidermy requires a keen eye for detail. Once the antlers or horns are acquired, (either through hunting or natural shedding), they undergo a cleaning and preservation process by our skilled taxidermists.

The antler taxidermy process involves 1.), removing any remaining tissue and 2.), treating the material with chemicals to prevent decay and to maintain its strength and appearance. Preserving antlers and horns properly is critical as it ensures that the antlers or horns can withstand the test of time.

Whitetail Deer Antlers

As a hunter or a cabin owner, you probably at some point will want to invest in at least one pair of majestic whitetail deer antlers. Crown the top of your doorway or above your TV with a quality pair of mounted antlers! Whitetail deer antlers are shed by the male deer, or buck, once a year.

The velvet that grows on them sheds every fall, creating the dynamic racks as you see them on our website. These decorative wall mounts will look stunning on your wall. Shop all Whitetail deer antlers for sale today!

Mule Deer Antlers

Mule deer antlers are great for decorating your lodge’s fireplace, your cabin entrance, your living room wall, or anywhere where you want a rustic look in your home or office. Mule deer bucks differ from Whitetails in that their racks are taller and broader. In addition, the mounted antlers on a Mule deer are bifurcated, which means that they fork in two different directions during growth.

Also known as the Wapiti, the North American and Eastern Asian elk are one of the largest members of the deer family with impressive, elongated racks and many points. Our sturdy elk antlers for sale will make a beautiful addition to your cabin wall.

The primary function of elk antlers is for mating displays and battles. During the rutting season, males use their antlers to compete for the attention of females. These battles can be intense, with the elk locking antlers and pushing against one another in a show of strength and dominance.

Moose Antlers for Sale

Moose, the largest members of the deer family, are renowned for their massive antlers. The size and formation of antlers on a full grown bull (male moose) are remarkable: they can span over six feet across and weigh up to 40 pounds. Moose antlers are shed and regrown annually, a process governed by hormonal changes and environmental factors.

Mounted moose antlers are huge and will provide a stunning appearance over a doorway in your cabin. The eye-catching mounted antlers are a must for any hunter or cabin owner.
