Abstract
A bracket is attached to the mounting board of a taxidermy work piece both to facilitate attachment and detachment of the work piece from an adjustable taxidermy stand by an individual, and also to later support the work piece on a building wall. The bracket includes co-planar attachment flanges with screw holes for attachment to a rear surface of the mounting board, a second flange spaced from the plane and that defines a shaped aperture for engaging a wall hook to hold the mounting board on a building wall for display, and a third flange extending downward from the second flange to form a recess to engage a top edge of the plate on the taxidermy stand. A related method is also illustrated, the method including temporarily supporting the work piece on the taxidermy stand until additional fasteners can be placed.
