Lately I have been seeing different taxidermists using Ai on their mounts. Don't get me wrong, I love Ai, it's a great tool, but not when it's being used to deceive people. Some are very talented taxidermists that don't even need it. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Blurring or removing the background or adding watermarks isn't what I am referring to. It's difficult to notice without having a trained eye. I've even been seeing other taxidermists compliment Ai taxidermy work.

Just wanted to make people aware.

This client didn’t even know he was one! This Mallard limit was a surprise from his blind buddies. We snuck in his office and set it up for him to find. I've got some cool content to create with these.

Tito Burrito has a high-Grade Mast Cell Tumor (Aggressive Cancer) and the vet wasn't able to get it all cut out according to pathology.

We will be doing a second surgery and praying the margins on this sample are clean and we get it all, also while praying it hasn't spread elsewhere through his body. We will be going between his vet and a Specialist at ISU, so please bear with me the next few weeks. He's only 5 and the most important to me, so I will do whatever I possibly can for him.

I don't like posting personal things like this, but I also dont have it in me to type this out 20+ times to people.

Thank you for understanding, and thank you to everyone that has messaged me personally. 💙
