#5 - Sheep Camp: Trophy Care & Caping with Ray Wiens Taxidermy

57 minutes

We have Ray Wiens joining us to talk trophy care and sheep caping. We all understand how special the moment is when you harvest a trophy ram, and part of preserving that moment to last a lifetime is how you care for the animal once it hits the ground.

This was a thoughtful discussion on trophy care and sheep caping between Ray & Chuck, with some Q&A from the audience. Ray is a talented taxidermist and widely respected man in the hunting and conservation community and we enjoyed chatting with him.

Ray Wiens Taxidermy is a BC-based taxidermist business that has been in operation since 2005. Ray is a one-stop shop where hunters can have compulsory inspections completed, hides tanned and mounts to celebrate life-long memories.

Note: this podcast episode is a recording of a livestream from Spike Camp's "Sheep Camp" series.
