Some of the time I will cape it myself,other times as kshunter has suggested have a taxidermist cape and either freeze soild or salt the cape.I paid $25 to have my antelope caped for me.Do some research now and find a good reputable taxidermist in your area before you need him.That way you can see his work and are not just making a snap desition.Also bear in mind that cheaper is not always the way to go.See his work and study it,talk to some of his customers to see if he is good to work with and does as he promises when he promises.I got lucky and have a taxidermist that does museum quality work at a reasonable price,and in a timely fashion,Thats like hitting the triffecta
