Is taxidermy better done in the country it came from?

I've always had my taxidermy done here at home with a Great taxidermist Brad Stallsworth here in Oregon, but this last trip I was on, my PH was trying to get me to try a Taxidermist close by in the Eastern Cape, I went and looked at the guys work, it looked like crap. We went to Kwazula Natal to visit some friends, I looked at his trophy room and it was excellent taxidermy work by Marakalo Taxidermy/Nolan Human in Bloemfontaine, BUT taxidermy done there bigger crates more shipping cost. I haven't done the math yet but it probably is a break even
Had a spelling error the Taxidermist in Bloemfontaine, is Marakalalo Taxidermy
 
The best taxidermy is done by the best taxidermist - regardless of location.

Everyone always thinks about the worst thing that can happen, maybe ask yourself what's the best outcome that could happen?
