One word “awesome”

I purchased “Terry” from Taxidermy Artistry as a birthday gift for my dearest husband, Loki, who passed away four years ago. The beauty of Terry is beyond words. The detail and craftsmanship of this specimen is over and above what I expected. I know in my heart that Loki totally adores Terry. And from me, many thanks to Taxidermy Artistry for the excellent customer service, the careful packaging, quick delivery and the birthday wishes for my Loki. 💕💀🕷️
