Custom Wildlife Displays & Habitat Builds for Retail and Hospitality

When people step into an outdoor retailer, lodge, or resort, the atmosphere matters. A striking wildlife display — complete with lifelike mounts and immersive habitats — transforms a space from ordinary to unforgettable. These displays aren’t just decorations; they’re experiences that connect people to the outdoors and create lasting impressions.

At Stehling’s Taxidermy, creating large-scale wildlife displays and custom habitat builds is a major part of what we do. With over 50 years of experience and some of the largest facilities in the world, we have the expertise and capacity to bring ambitious projects to life.

Built for Big Projects

As one of the largest taxidermy studios in the world, we have the scale and resources to take on projects of virtually any size.

• Our 8,000 sq. ft. flagship studio in Jefferson features state-of-the-art equipment, large observation windows, and expansive production space.

• Our 3,000 sq. ft. Green Bay showroom highlights a wide variety of mounts and habitats and serves as a hub for projects across northeastern Wisconsin.

Together, these facilities give us more than 11,000 sq. ft. of space to handle everything from a single showcase mount to an entire wall-to-wall installation.

State-of-the-Art Craftsmanship

Our team of second-generation, full-time taxidermists combines decades of experience with modern tools and techniques to deliver museum-quality results. Every project is built to last, whether it’s displayed in a high-traffic retail environment or as the centerpiece of a lodge.

When it comes to large-scale wildlife displays, our process includes:

• Museum-grade mounts built to withstand years of viewing.

• Custom habitat builds with realistic rock, vegetation, and terrain elements.

• Durable construction methods designed for longevity in public and commercial spaces.
