Mike spent the afternoon with John Dunavant from Dundas Taxidermy. Mike and John first met at a NWTF banquet, where John donated a full turkey mount to help raise funds for the local branch of the organization. A quick friendship was formed and it didn't take long to set up an interview for the podcast! John is a very interesting guy who spent 12 years as a Merchant Marine, went to Taxidermy school in Iowa, then came back home to start his business in Brunswick County, VA. John is all about taking care of veteran's and promoting the outdoors to today's youth. His motto is "Take a Child in the Wild"! Check it out!
