Skull mounts, also referred to as European mounts, are a big part of taxidermy work.
European mounting is the process of displaying only the skull of the animal (horns or antlers included).
There are many different ways you can display the animal. In this post, I’m sharing 10 European mounting ideas for your home.
Most of these mounting ideas can be purchased on Etsy.

European Skull Display
This listing is for a display mount. This mount is polished cedar driftwood with skull mounting brackets. Because this is a natural product, the shape of the driftwood will vary. Get it from Nussbaum Taxidermy.
Mount with Flowers
This is a mount idea that I discovered on Instagram. I love the feminine touch that’s added by placing flowers behind the horns.
