I have a white squirrel that I found on a golf cart ride in my neighborhood. I would not kill one because they are fairly rare but here there are a few . When I found this guy I thought you gotta have it mounted . Let me know if you would like to do it I think people would like it let me know if you can and we will see what we can work out .

I took a job quiz once and it told me I should be a taxidermist 🤷‍♀️

[venamotylek]

It sounds like a good idea if you love sculpture, and can stand the blood. From what I've seen you make a lot of money.

Curiosity: Dr Seuss created paper mache figures made also with horns of dead animals called "Unorthodox Taxidermy" that he picked Dr Seuss designed animals and make a fake taxidermy, today the figures are in museums, and my favorite one is "Goo Goo eyed Tasmanian wolghast"
