World-class African trophy preparation — preserving your memories for a lifetime.
Trophy Preparation You Can Trust
TIA Taxidermy is part of our company — owned and operated by Worldwide Adventures & Karoo Legacy Safaris. Every trophy you harvest is handled with the utmost care from the moment it leaves the field, processed right here on our property to ensure your mounts arrive home in perfect condition — true-to-life, expertly finished, and built to last generations.
From full shoulder mounts and life-size pieces to skull plates, rugs, and European mounts, TIA Taxidermy offers the full spectrum of African trophy work. Our team understands the significance of each animal and treats every piece as the irreplaceable memory it is.
