Traditional South African taxidermy, shaped by patience, respect for the animal and decades of hands-on craftsmanship.
“Dagga Boys” is the African safari nickname for old Cape buffalo bulls that have left the breeding herd—solitary, resilient and unmistakably African.
About us

We serve local hunters, outfitters and international clients who value careful workmanship, honest communication and a mount that honours the memory behind it.
