To obtain the best results with your trophy

• Get to CS Taxidermy within 3 days 

If you can not put in the freezer. (Hide on preferred)

• Wrap in two or more trash bags, air tight to store for long periods of time.

• Keep head hide on in a cool place (preferred not thrown out in the sun still connected to rest of cape for a week in October weather) There may be a rotting fee applied to your total cost. 

• Keep in mind when separating skull from the atlas vertebrae knife marks into bone will be visible when skull is prepared. Take your time and cut around the joint.
