Huegel Taxidermy C&Co.

I'll admit, I was a bit skeptical when my younger brother mentioned that he wanted to pursue taxidermy. However, it wasn't until he described the process that I realized this was more of a tasteful art than I had previous thought.

My brother has been one with the outdoors since he was born. Through his respect for nature, he recreates cherished memories for those who respect the same.

My favorite story from all of this has to be the one of the whitetail deer he mounted for his best friend.

A few years back, Andrew's life-long friend's father passed away from cancer. Months before this had happened, his friend went hunting with his dad. That day, his dad ended up taking down the perfect buck he was looking for to feed the family. Andrew chose to commemorate his friend's last hunt with his father by building a mount from the original foundation of that same buck. His friend was incredibly grateful for such a gift.

Andrew has always been an artist. I couldn't be happier that he found a calling which allows him to make moments last while expressing his creativity.

You have no limits my brother.
