Rogue Taxidermists

tasteslikechicken.JPG"1) The taxidermists abide by a strict non-violence policy. Almost none of the animals used in the taxidermy were killed expressly for the purpose of mounting. Specimens are collected as road-kill, gifted to the taxidermist by friends, gifted after natural deaths by pet stores, or purchased from scientific supply companies.

2)The artists herein are not wasteful, and nearly every piece of the animal is used toward some artistic goal."
