Welcome to Alaska Frontier Taxidermy of Valdez Alaska.

Dave’s passion for taxidermy started while he was in high school. He started out with the mail correspondence course with the Northwestern School of Taxidermy. He also learned to do birds during high school from college students at Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary in Green Bay Wisconsin.

After this he graduated from Freeze Dry and Conventional School of Taxidermy at Nisswa, Minnesota.

Since then Dave moved to Alaska and open Frontier Taxidermy in 1985 and has been doing taxidermy ever since.
