Andre Galenda  -  Outdoor Sports Enthusiast

Growing up Southwest of Buffalo, New York on the Eastern shore of Lake Erie near the Pennsylvania border, I have had an interest in the outdoors since an early age.

My first hunting experience was with my dad shortly after my 16th birthday.  Since that time I have taken a wide variety of game animals ranging from fowl, to wild boar, to the great "white tail".  The deer of which I am most  proud are a 130 class 10 point bagged with a shotgun and an impressive 141 5/8 class trophy buck taken with a bow.

Taxidermy allows me to bring the animals back to life and recapture our moment in the wild.  I enjoy the elements of art used in the airbrushing techniques and the craft of good stitching.  I strive to portray the animal as alive, not mounted.

Customers will choose Galenda Taxidermy because of an emphasis on quality workmanship and superior customer service at a competitive price.  As the business develops, listening and responding to the needs of patrons will be a priority.
