I never much cared for mounts I saw in my friends'/relations' homes for years and years. So I never gave much thought or effort to getting anything mounted. I shot a good number of decent heads but never felt any urge to hang any dead animals on my walls.

Until I saw some really good taxidermy, that is, mounts that look like they're alive. That's when I realized that 1) good taxidermy can be amazingly beautiful art, and 2) truly good taxidermy is pretty expensive. Worth it? That's up to you.
