I really want to learn everything i can about taxidermy. I am trying on birds right now and i bought a movie from van Dyke's and I'm sorry but that movie really stinks on showing details i would really like to get hands on training but it is so expensive that i cant afford it  i live in Grove OK and the closest school is MTI so i was wondering if there was any grant type things you can possibly get for schooling or if anyone has any movies they can post on mounting birds it would be greatly appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!!!Thanks for any help you can give me

Kaston,
In regard to grants that will pay for taxidermy training.  It depends on your situation.  We work often with Voc-Rehab, VA  Voc-Rehab, WIA etc.  These are government programs that are available to help with tuition.  Most of these programs can be accessed on-line.  Look at the "Discounts" page on our website.  We also offer discounts for Military Service, Public Service, new High School Graduate, etc.  Hope this helps.  If you have any questions feel free to contact us directly. 573-346-6871  Ask for Carrie.

As far as videos, I am not much help there.  I have heard that WASCO has some good ones.

If you are willing to go to Wisconsin you should really go to American Institute of Taxidermy. I went there and was very pleased. I enjoyed my classes very much. If you are interested the website for the school is www.americantaxidermy.com.
