Are There People or Companies That Will Buy Taxidermy Collections From Individuals?

There is. I believe most are based out West. They’re used to decorate high dollar lodges. I assume non hunters usually buy them.

Nah, Taxidermy is pretty sought after, even bland stuff. As long as it is in good condition and OK work there is a business looking to hang it 12 feet up there wall somewhere.

i could see if the work was of decent quality, but a lot of stuff i see looks like someone still learning did it

I know a guy out of Austin that buys taxidermy. If they’re interested I can get y’all in touch.

Truly bad stuff isn't going to be bought, but that guy from California that just bought a ranch is Utah and opened up a hipster style bar doesn't have a clue what a deer is suppose to look like.

Some mounts might not sell for more that what they cost to get mounted, but they do have some value. Good stuff ends up with all the bass pros, cabelas and chain restaurants that pop up all over the south but lots of times they try to get them as "donations" and thank you with a plaque nobody can read.

I would look up the SCI website there are companies that do this.

That being the case, Xenon's bobcat should bring top dollar.

Yes...

My dad used to be the attorney for a family's local sporting good business, and when they shut it down, they gave him all the mounts in the store for his office. When people come into our office, they always comment, your dad must be a big hunter?!?

Anyway, you see them all the time going for decent money at local estate sales.
