Taxidermy Classes

Second Nature School of Taxidermy offers some of the most comprehensive taxidermy classes in the country.

If you have ever been interested in the art of taxidermy, or are thinking about a rewarding career change, taxidermy classes should be your first step.

Taxidermy classes can vary in length from a one week basic course on one aspect of taxidermy such as Deer shoulder mounts, up to a longer curriculum course covering everything, including Life size mounts, Birds, Fish and more. These longer taxidermy classes are geared toward the person who wants to learn a broad range of taxidermy techniques and are probably interested in starting their own successful taxidermy business.

Here at Second Nature School of Taxidermy, we offer several course options with something for everyone.

The first is our One Week Game Head Course where you can learn the proper techniques for mounting and finishing Deer shoulder mounts.

If you want to include a little more variety, you might want to look at our Two Week Mammal Course, in which you can mount 3 shoulder mounts as well as a full body mount that includes a realistic habitat base.

For those students who are looking for a full spectrum course that covers the above subjects as well as Birds, Fish, Rugs and Antler Plaques, then our Five Week Full Course would be your best option.

In addition to the hands on aspect of commercial taxidermy, we also include our business and marketing seminar, which has been designed to give our students an edge over the competition when starting their business.

Our taxidermy classes are perfect for the beginner taxidermist, as well as existing taxidermists who want to improve the quality of their work.
