Attention wildlife and outdoor enthusiasts! This is an auction that you do not want to miss. This collection of museum quality taxidermy and wildlife art represents a lifetime of memorable hunting and fishing experiences and trophies from all across North America. This taxidermy was produced by some of the world's top taxidermy companies such as Zimmerman Wildlife, Advanced Taxidermy and Wildlife Design, Rapalee Taxidermy, Jonas Brothers Taxidermy, Klineburger Taxidermy and others.

Some of these mounts are Safari Club International record book and award winners. Others are simply creative design by someone who was passionate about hunting and wildlife. In addition we have two replica eagles made by Rick Krietemeier in 1987. These eagles are so lifelike that game wardens showed up to verify that they were indeed replica's and not illegal taxidermy.
