Capilano Taxidermy

Established in 1956, Capilano Taxidermy Studios, a Canada Taxidermist, has become a leader within the taxidermy industry in the Pacific Northwest. We handle everything from sales to movie props. You will find what you need at Capilano Taxidermy. We strive on superior service and unrivalled craftsmanship, setting us apart from the competition; we ensure a friendly and helpful ongoing relationship with every client. Eugen E. Klein, our founder and master craftsman, grew up in Vienna, Austria, learning his trade in the fur industry at the age of 14. Coming to Canada in 1956 he launched Capilano Taxidermy. Hand sewing when the competition used hot glue, hand painted glass eyes imported from overseas instead of generic glass eyes and even touring the continent in search of new techniques and materials are just a few the examples setting his company apart. "Quality Workmanship, Dependability and Service," these are the old fashioned work ethics he began Capilano Taxidermy with. Mr. Klein is an avid hunter who has trekked across the world with safaris in North America, Europe and Africa. He became displeased with the quality of workmanship that other taxidermy shops had to offer and finally opened a studio of his own to deliver the finest workmanship and quality to all his clients. To this day, our philosophy remains the same in treating all of our clients' trophies as if they were our own.
