American Taxidermy Online is an Internet-based school that teaches taxidermy at home. It is part of the American Institute of Taxidermy. Courses, led by professional taxidermist and instructor Dennis D Rinehart, include: coyote mounting; bass mounting; deer head mounting and turkey flying. Classes are delivered weekly in a video format, so high speed Internet is required to take part. The number of study hours varies, depending on your taxidermy project. For example, the squirrel mounting course spans five sessions and lasts over four hours, while the coyote rug mounting takes 10 hours.
