Black Bear 4-H Club families recently toured two homes to learn about taxidermy and exotic animal mounts.

In February, the club toured Trophy Time Taxidermy and Antler Reproductions LLC, owned by Tim Hidde. Hidde explained the process from start to finish of mounting various animals and fish. His collection of different molds used to create antler reproductions drew interest from those attending.
