Meet Mary Carole,
MC for short.

I am a lifelong lover of the outdoors and wildlife. I went on my first hunt when I was 11 years old. My dad and I ventured deep into the Mississippi woods where I eagerly sat and waited for the right moment to take the shot.

The first animal I got on a hunt was a doe, and the whole experience was commemorated with the traditional blood streaked across my face by my cousin as we prepared the deer to be processed. While only pictures exist to remind me of that first hunt, the memory of my first buck was preserved by a taxidermist – and that was my first real introduction to what is a sport and an art.

After college, I moved to Colorado where I first worked on a ranch and later, I moved on to taxidermy. I begin working with a team of professional taxidermists in northern Colorado. What started as a fun job to try out turned into an incredible opportunity. For over four years, I perfected the skills associated with mounting North American big and small game and exotic mounts from around the world. More recently I’ve started mounting waterfowl. I’ve gotten the opportunity to learn from different taxidermists across the US.
