Has Anyone Ever Shipped a Full Mount Croc?

[Trapper]

I can't remember what my last crate from Africa cost to ship back, but I do well remember that my taxidermy bill was the same price as my safari bill, and that was even with saving a ton of money having it done in SA. My son and I did however hunt in Spain in 2024 and took two record book Iberian red stags. We had both of them done in Euro mounts which only costed $250 each. They were shipped back to the states in a single crate of about 40"x52"x18" and the shipping cost was $1,600! I would expect a crate holding an almost 14' crock to cost quite a bit.
