On today's podcast we are joined by Matt Defazio owner of Wildlife by Design to talk about taxidermy and a pretty big giveaway. Topics include: Mounting birds versus mammals, how to care for an animal prior to mounting, Why putting a bird in a closed bag is a bad idea, learning the trade, why African mounts are something unique, how the taxidermist "can't just fix it every time", and being able to give back. Please visit Matt at his Facebook page Wildlife by Design LLC.
