Arizona’s mule deer, primarily those taken in the northern part of the state, are large strong animals. Typically those deer taken in the pre rut and the rut are in the best of physical condition. Wall pedestal and floor pedestals are very popular presentations for these magnificent deer. See our pedestals created exclusively for Pioneer Taxidermy by wood artist Warren Euckert.

At Pioneer Taxidermy the artists go to great lengths to reproduce the natural hues of the ear interior. Most production taxidermists spray the ear either flesh or brown and call it good.

The mule deer as with most animals can move his ears independently of one another. At Pioneer Taxidermy we pose the ears in a manner depicting the attitude you desire. In doing so, we accurately sculpt in the appropriate muscle structure. It makes a big difference!

You won’t see this in production taxidermy mounts. The majority of manikins available to us fail to provide the added dimension of the upper shoulder and spinal column definition. At Pioneer Taxidermy we take the time to sculpt this feature in, after all the animal did have it when it was alive.
