I have to disagree with that statement.
There are well over 1000 licensed taxidermists in the state of MI. Who knows how many working without the proper paperwork. I would say that's a few for the state.

I'm from Pa and there's a taxidermy shop on every corner of the block!!! I can't tell you how many people I have meet that are not licensed and do their own and there Buddy's.. Most give up and I end up getting the work because they don't have the patients or the experience!!!
