[amelia]

hi i'm a college student in south/central new jersey - i am interested in taxidermy, and have located about 4 places near my area where i plan to stop in and see if they can tell me how one gets into taxidermy. anybody in these forums from my area? also, would it be "weird" if i were to stop someplace and say hey...need help with your taxidermy?

amelia, If you are located in NJ Why not try out the Garden State Taxidermy Association.
This would be a great place to meet taxidermists in your area and they have several great seminars.
Here is there info from conventions.
Give Dave a call I'm sure he'll be able to help you out. Good Luck

May 4th through May 6th, 2007
