Sturgeon Replica
My Buddy caught a beast last year(actually 3 in one night) and was looking to get a replica done. Any suggestions?

I believe the poster was asking to have a replica done. Not a Taxidermy.

then it was either Sask or the Fraser river where the monsters are. I am curious on what the prairie Dino's look like if anyone has some closeups.

I would guess a 60" sturgeon would cost about 2000-3000$. If your talking a fraser sized sturgeon, multiply that number...
I get the 2-3k from an estimate I got for ~60" fish.
Unfortunately, buyer typically pays by the inch.

Advanced taxidermy
My 41"x 20" pike cost me $1050, all in ( taxes, shipping to my door- ontario to Edmonton). Advanced doesnt quote work based on the basic length concept ,due to the differences in fish body structure and such. Call them, they are very easy to deal with. Im very pleased with my mount.
