Taxidermists in Glynn County, Georgia
Glynn County provides plenty of opportunities for hunters chasing whitetails in the pine woods or ducks along the Altamaha River.

There are currently two taxidermy operations serving the area, both located in Brunswick.
Whether you are looking for a standard shoulder mount or specialized waterfowl work, these shops handle the preservation process from start to finish. Having a professional nearby in Brunswick, such as Anguilla Taxidermy, makes it easier to drop off your harvest while it is still fresh and discuss the specific pose you want.

Using taxidermists in Glynn County
A taxidermist takes your cape and antlers, preps and tans the hide, then mounts the animal on a form. Most shops want the cape caped out and frozen, or the whole head delivered cold and unfrozen within a day or two of the kill.
What to ask before you commit
- What is your current turnaround time, in months?
- Do you tan in-house or send hides out?
- What deposit do you require, and is it applied to the final price?
- Can I see finished mounts of the same species?
- How should I care for the cape before I bring it in?
What it usually costs
Shoulder mounts commonly run several hundred to well over a thousand dollars depending on species, form and finish work. European mounts are typically the least expensive option. Deposits of 30-50% are standard.
Timing matters
Get the cape cold fast. Do not salt or freeze a cape you plan to have mounted without asking the shop first — hair slip from a warm hide is the single most common ruined mount.
