If this one's not carefull, he'll be stuffed too.
Re: Taxidermy
2If I showed up with any sort of stuffed dead animal I'd be castrated and divorced. Doesn't bode well for a future safari I'd like to go on to take out the big five.
Re: Taxidermy
3I myself don't have any, but I do have lab specimens that I've turned into 'art'. Rat skull snowglobes. Rat Xmas lights. Rat embryo paperweights. You get the idea. I don't think I have any on hand (hey, they make great gifts!) but if I stumble across any of my handiwork, I'll get some pics.
I don't like to think of my self as an artist so much as someone who stares at empty spaces and imagines s--t.

Re: Taxidermy
7We have a bunch of mounts up at our family cabin. Not sure if I have any photos though. My grandparents used to hunt back in the day.
