Field Care Guidance

What do we need to get started?

A properly preserved specimen is required, ideally frozen immediately after harvest. Avoid skinning or gutting the specimen unless this has been discussed beforehand. Contact the studio for guidance on appropriate field care.

Can older specimens be assessed?

In some cases, older or frozen specimens may still be suitable. The condition must first be evaluated. The strongest results generally come from specimens that have been preserved correctly.

Care Guide

Keep the mount away from direct sunlight and moisture. Remove dust gently using a soft cloth or feather duster. Contact Baruch Taxidermy when professional cleaning or restoration is required.
