Swiped from icaro:

Custom Creature Taxidermy, and along with it, a serious warning. It's not for the faint of heart, people with no sense of humor (like most fanatics from PETA), or anyone who can't appreciate taxidermy as an art. Personally, I find it fascinating and her fantasy creatures are very well done! If you're not easily put off by dead ( Read more... )

Capricorn did look good. I also liked the Frankensquirrel, but I think it'd freak me out actually having them at home. I can just see me waking up in the middle of the night to hear some bumping/ scuttling sound and think "Was that the cat, or was that the squirrel?!"

I'm more freaked out by dolls than I am preserved animals. How weird is that?

Dolls can be freaky too and ventriloquist puppets *shudders* I'm not 100% sure why they're so freaky, but I think It's to do with being exposed to too many horror movies as a child *grin* There's something sinister about those glass eyes and unreadable expressions.

I think I'd prefer sculpture, myself. Not because I'm some PETA freak - the lady does admit that she only uses remnants and besides, it would be kinda creepy to have preserved remains sitting around the house (my renfaire fox tail doesn't count, it's not freaking EYES staring down at me XD) - but because taxidermy just doesn't look right. No matter what position the animal's in, you just can't make it look very life-like. Mmmm, rigor mortis. XD
