No doubt.

Award winning Taxidermy there.

I really like the semi-sneak to the left
with the ears back. Really brings out the
width of the upper shell.

Good stuff.

Would that be considered a "PEDISTAL" mount?

I didn't know Turtles had teeth. Do they qualify as dangerous game?.... Terry

Terry - they are the MOST dangerous! You need to go back through the archives here at MM and research some tales of some treacherous turtle hunts!

I was thinking of getting my big Devil Terrapin mounted on a pedestal like that once I get it back from the authorities. (I am not allowed to mention which federal agency has it - last time I got in BIG trouble over it - but they assure me that I am getting it back)

and it has 15 inch bases too, right, Roy?

Sheesh. I'm beginning to think you're just yankin' our chains here.

I love that mount! It looks awesome. I'd put it center stage in my family room. Great decor!

Just look at the detail..doesn't get any better!!!!!

Ohhh...NO Doubt.

I've NEVER been brave enough
to go Full Body Mount on a turtle.

...and I've Whack'ed some Good'ens..

..Don't think I Ain't..

A few years ago, I put shell to shell,
and rattled up that Toad....

Then, I realized.....it was a toad..
not a Turtle.

Had to pay a fine on that one.

I can't afford anymore Turtles.

Y'all get'after'em.
