Animal Field Care
How to Cape for a Full Shoulder Mount
Using a very sharp knife make a cut along the circumference of the body 6 inches behind the back of the front leg,
next make a cut around the front legs, 6 inches beneath the body.
Next, make a cut from the leg cut to the circumference cut, following the hairline, where the white hair meets the brown.
Now you can start skinning out the body, go slowly if needed to avoid cutting deeply into the hide or through it, a deep "nick" could turn into a hole when I'm tanning the hide.
Once you get to the base of the skull the head can be cut loose 4-5" below the base of the skull.
Keep in a shady cool place, or in a cooler with ice, take to the Taxidermist within 24 - 48 hours, or place in plastic trash bags and freeze.

Gamebirds
Select the best possible specimen for mounting, pin feathers, broken and or missing feathers will make a lesser quality mount. Avoid gutting if at all possible! Keep your specimen in a cool shady area, or in a cooler with ice, take to the taxidermist within 24 - 48 hours or place in plastic bags and freeze. Avoid bending or breaking the tail feathers.
Small Mammals
For animals Coyote sized and smaller never gut the animal, Skinning should only be attemped if you know what you are doing. For Foxes, Coyotes and Bobcats, bring to your Taxidermist within 24 hours, or place in plastic bags and frozen immediatly after harvest. Predators will begin to spoil very soon after harvesting, hairslip on the ears and stomach will occur if not properly taken care of, it will become evident during the tanning process. All other small mammals should be frozen or taken to the Taxidermist within 24 - 48 hours.
