Bear Shoulder Mount Taxidermy

Our bear shoulder mount services bring unmatched power and realism to your trophy. Whether black bear or grizzly, a shoulder mount offers a bold yet space-efficient tribute to your hunt. Every detail—from jawline shape to ear placement—is sculpted to reflect the raw presence of the bear in its prime.

Why Choose a Bear Shoulder Mount

  • Compact Dominance: Shoulder mounts display the bear’s bulk without requiring full wall space.
  • Facial Expression Focus: Capture snarls, open-mouth roars, or calm majesty.
  • Muscle Definition: Highlight shoulder bulk, thick neck rolls, and fur texture.
  • Mounting Flexibility: Choose wall plaques, angled panels, or rustic wood cuts.

Species-Specific Designs

Black Bear Shoulder Mount

Rich black or cinnamon-toned fur meets thick neck pads and a compact snout. Our black bear mounts preserve the animal’s stoic nature and power with sharp anatomical accuracy.

Grizzly Bear Taxidermy

Larger, more rugged forms define our grizzly bear work. Broad shoulders, sun-bleached tips, and a stronger jawline set these mounts apart, requiring specialty forms and enhanced skin preparation.

Materials & Techniques

  • Custom Shoulder Forms: Polyurethane cores shaped to bear proportions.
  • Glass Eyes: UV-resistant, with natural pupil shapes and eyelid tensioning.
  • Tanning Process: Heavy-duty tanning to maintain dense hide integrity.
  • Airbrushing & Detail Work: Subtle fur shading and muscle blending.

Customization Options

  • Mount Angles: Straight, semi-turn, or full side profile.
  • Plaques & Bases: Natural wood cuts, carved shields, or stone-look panels.
