Browns Taxidermy and Wildlife Studio

Brown's Taxidermy and Wildlife Studio handles everything from waterfowl to large game mounts. Lita Brown, the studio's federally licensed taxidermist, trained at Bill Allen's Pocono Institute of Taxidermy and studied under Master Taxidermist James Kelly of Ringoes, New Jersey.

Her background as a Surgical Physician Assistant sets her apart. Those fine motor skills and perfectionist approach translate directly into lifelike, anatomically accurate mounts.

Mammals - Small mammals (raccoon, mink, fisher, beaver): $900+ - Medium mammals (coyote, bobcat, fox): $1,800+ - Whitetail shoulder mounts: $1,200+ (add $250 for wall pedestal) - Black bear shoulder mounts: $1,000+ (add $250 for wall pedestal) - Full rugs: $300–$400 per linear foot (includes padding, backing, felt border)

"We take great care in our entire process to ensure that each piece we create is a beautiful and respectful tribute to the animal that it represents."

The studio provides detailed field care instructions for hunters: - Deer for shoulder mount: specific caping cuts to protect the cape - Birds: rinse, wrap head and feet, freeze or drop off same day - Small mammals: freeze whole, no prior skinning needed

Beyond standard mounts, they handle custom projects and exotic species. Prices vary by complexity and materials—consultations available to discuss your vision.
