My name is Rich Phalin and I am a full time taxidermist located in Mukwonago, Wisconsin.  Just 30 minutes west of Milwaukee. 

I have been a taxidermist in Wisconsin for the past 23 years. Taxidermy became my passion after visiting a local Wisconsin museum as a child.  I enjoyed seeing the mounted whitetail deer, bear, antelope, mule deer, moose and the life-size elk mounts and other animals. I am a member of the Wisconsin Taxidermist Association and federal and state licensed.  As a serious amateur wildlife photographer I enjoy experiencing nature in its natural environment and incorporate this into my taxidermy by producing mounts that are as lifelike as possible. 

My taxidermy shop is located at the home I share with my wife Wendy, our dogs Amber and Riley and our cat Peashe.  A home based taxidermy shop allows me to keep my prices reasonable and have a quicker turn around time than some of my other taxidermist competitors.  Growing up in Wisconsin I became an avid Wisconsin sportsman enjoying hunting, Fishing and trapping.

I enjoy mounting whitetail shoulder mounts, life-size animals and fish.  We do rugs, pedestal and skull mounts, habitat scenes and birds.  I also tan hides for wall hangers.

As a taxidermist I continue to improve my skills and stay abreast of new taxidermy procedures through training and seminars. At Rich’s Taxidermy our goal is to give you a mount that you can be proud of and that helps keep the memory of that special hunting or fishing trip alive. 

Give me a call and I will be happy to discuss your taxidermy needs and field care tips before your next hunting or fishing trip.
