I went on a plains game hunt in South Africa 3 years ago. I had a skull mount on wooden shield of Impala & Eland. I also had Zebra skin tanned & lined with black velvet. Total cost of taxidery in South Africa was under $500 & took just over 1 year. Shipping costs to Australia was about $500, & I would think more to the US, but still under $1,000.
Your outfitter/guide should be able to recommend a taxidermist in South Africa who could quote "ball park" prices. Contact a local customs/shipping agent & they will confirm freight/customs charges.
Just paid deposit for 11 day plains game hunt in Zimbabwe for next June, & again I will have taxidery done in Africa.
