For the
recreations, I offer the Labrador duck, Pink-Headed
duck,
Coues’ Gadwall, Mariana Mallard, and the Auckland Islands Merganser. Each are
done with legal to sell domestic waterfowl, and if a “wild” type is used, the
appropriate paper work will be included for each species used to create your
mount.|
Each have been extensively researched and the mounts are done to every precise detail. The purpose of the recreations is to give museums and serious collectors the opportunity to have something that no one else will.
With all the species that have gone extinct,
very few actual mounts still exist today and the vast majority of those belong
to museums, making owning one of these a thing of dreams. The prices for these recreations are based on expenses spent (such as how much it takes to make them), and the difficulty to do so, but even with all the extra work, many are just slightly higher than what you would pay to get a typical duck mounted. Please click on the links for each species in which you might be interested to view pictures of the mounts, along with a brief biography. |
