| It is really fairly easy to
explain. Good taxidermy is when you make the animal look so good
that you think it is still breathing. The eyes are correctly
focused. The hair has a shiny, silky feel to it. The whiskers are
not out of place. The nose is just a little shiny like it is still
cold and wet. On birds, the feathers should be shiny and not out of
place. Warning to all! Please, if you are intending on making a trophy out of an animal, pick out a taxidermist before you ever go hunting. Call them and ask what methods they use and they will give you the proper instructions to follow when preparing your animal in the field. I have seen more trophies ruined by the hunter because they did not know how to properly care for the animal in the field when it was first harvested.
