Overview

The purpose of taxidermy is to preserve game trophies, for all time so that it can be displayed and admired for what it truly is: craftmanship at its best!

The services of a taxidermist may be desired by those who wish to preserve a game trophy for historical or educational purposes, or by avid hunters, who wish to add to their very own trophy collection.

The South African based town of White River is home to Life-Form Taxidermy, which is situated within the “Big Five” territory, a stone throw away of the world-famous Kruger National Park.

For over 40 years, Life-Form Taxidermy has been producing more than 150,000 high-end (quality) trophies. This article takes a closer look at the excellent work of Life-Form Taxidermy as well as its variety of services offered.

Why is a good taxidermist important?

Sculpting, woodworking, stitching, painting, carpentry, and tanning are just a few of the various skills required for a specialised taxidermy. Most of this work is rendered for avid hunters and fisherman, who are proud of their trophies harvested.

When a photograph simply won’t suffice, these adventurers will spend hundreds, if not thousands, to have their trophies preserved and custom-made into beautiful mounts, by a taxidermist.

While international museums order some of these displays, the vast majority come from proud hunters and fisherman who want to relive their Safari adventures, through their taxidermied trophies.

As such, an expertly taxidermied game trophy can become a thing of beauty, standing true to the power and grace of our most iconic African species.

Here, we explore some of the offerings provided by Life-Form to understand what sets them apart in the ever-changing taxidermy industry.
