Abstract
The present invention is a taxidermy display apparatus (TDA) and method of use. The TDA provides for a simple and low cost means for displaying a taxidermy mount such as the skull of a deer or other animal, preferably by providing for the ready suspension of such taxidermy mount. The TDA comprises an eyebolt, a washer, a barrel nut, and an anchor. In practice, a user positions the anchor within the skull, places the washer on top of the skull, threads the eyebolt through the washer—the eyebolt passing through a natural or created hole in the skull—and threads the eyebolt through the anchor. With a taxidermy mount thus affixed to the TDA, TDA with a taxidermy mount affixed thereon is suspended from a holding structure via the eyelet of the eyebolt.
