Japanese Taxidermists

I'd be happy to help you out with seven taxidermists from Japan, complete with postal addresses. Send me a PM with your own postal address and you can expect the list and my source of obtaining it in this weeks USPS mail. Please share your tentative findings with the rest of us here at Taxidermy.Net when and if it pans out well.
One historical name of the most incredible fish painting artists and amazing habitat designers of the American Museum of Natural History, the James L. Clark Studios and the John F. Hansen Studios was a Japanese American known as Toshio Aseada. Toshio discovered many of the innovations in fish taxidermy and habitat coloring techniques that our industry so often takes for granted. His work with a pallet, brush and oils would rival anyone who ever held an airbrush. Your subject matter sounds exciting, best of luck with it!

 

From friends within the military, I've heard that there is no longer any "wild" hunting done in Japan, or, the Formosan Islands, and, due to the lack of game or birds, and all of the vast numbers of people, that the "game farm" style hunting clubs have grown rapidly since World War ll, and, the most common, pen-raised and hunted bird there, is the Copper pheasant. I have photos of game farm hunters, with liberal "bags" of several specie of exotic pheasant, and the Copper being the most prevalent! I'd enjoy a morning of Copper pheasant hunting! LOL!
