TAXIDERMY
Your hunting trophies are memories of your African safari. You will live with them for a lifetime, sharing them with all who see them proudly displayed.
Choosing the right taxidermist to mount your trophies is very important. Trophies hunted with Antelope for Africa Safaris will be sent to the taxidermist of your choice; whether the taxidermist is located in South Africa, the USA, or else where. But, before you decide, consider the following:
Choose a taxidermist who is knowledgeable of the species you will be hunting in South Africa.
Choose a qualified taxidermist with a good reputation.
Tour the taxidermists' facilities, if possible; discuss with him the options for mounting your trophies.
Taxidermy completed in South Africa allows favorable foreign exchange rates for non-South Africans - thus, it is very affordable.
Outfitter and Professional Hunter Melville du Plessis of Antelope for Africa Safaris personally approves Life-Form Taxidermy located in White River, South Africa. 12-18 months after your safari is the approximate time in which you can expect completion and shipping of your taxidermy work.
Life-Form Taxidermy is a member of PHASA (The Professional Hunters Association of South Africa). They are one of the top 5 best taxidermists in South Africa, creating museum quality trophies.
For hunters who wish to have their taxidermy completed outside of South Africa, all trophies must go through a raw prep and chemical process to be disinfected before shipping to the taxidermist of choice. This process takes approximately 3-6 months. We approve Trophy Solutions Africa , owned and operated by Johan and Estie van de Merwe in Polokwane, Limpopo Province. Trophy Solutions Africa is a PHASA member.
