Life size caracal cat ideas

Congrats on taking yours. Photos and where did you take it? I think caracals are worthy of action poses since they are so athletic. They look great when stretched out jumping for birds or combined with a duiker kill. As with all cats, the eyes, ears and face are critical to looking right.
 
I mounted this one a while back. I have others but I'd have to search through pics to find them.

If I can get some time I will try and find more. You can also jump on my FB page for Top of Texas Taxidermy and there are a lot of pics on there.
 
The best advice I could offer is to try and take a lot of time researching for a taxidermist that has quite a few examples of cats that when you look at them, you love them. And to some degree, that's going to be a personal preference choice.

I feel like cats are the number one most butchered taxidermy out there. Predators in general are difficult for a lot of people, and it shows when you look at the predator taxidermy out there.
 
One jumping in air to catch a Cape starling or European bee-eater. Both are spectacular birds. Both are listed as "least concern." Both are common in South Africa (bee-eater is a winter migrant and starling is year round resident).
 
Keep in mind those cats can jump 8' vertically so a leaping mount doesn't necessarily require habitat. Personally, I don't care for habitat with taxidermy. Damn difficult to keep clean. Mega dust collectors.

Just moving to DM. Yes, please ask your friend if he knows somebody who might be willing to support a persistent hunt in the snow.

Hi Paul,
This is Daniel from Mankazana Safaris.

I saw your post regarding a hunt in Africa. I am sure you have been bombarded with messages and replies from other outfitters, so I will keep this one quick.
I have a feeling we have exactly what you need for a first safari.
If you'd like to hear more, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Yours sincerely,
