"Market Tuna" Prop
A real tuna, ready for market (actual prop shown) can be worth thousands of dollars and be hard to find in your location. This model is made from Animal Makers’ exclusive molds of an original sculpture.

"Fresh Catch" Tuna Prop
The “fresh catch” fake tuna prop is approximately 5’ long and about 12” wide. This one is silicone skinned and the skin is installed around an armature that kicks around. This tuna replica was made using Animal Makers’ proprietary molds struck from an original sculpture. Sculpting a figure like this creates a “living” look as opposed to trying to make a mold from a dead specimen.
