Taxidermy Gone Wrong

Book excerpt: WARNING! WEIRD WACKY AND WONDERFUL TAXIDERMY OVERLOAD. A perfect gift for fans of Crap Taxidermy and taxidermy in general, Taxidermy Gone Wrong takes you inside the strange and hilariously horrifying world of taxidermy from around the globe. From musical mice and basketball playing bengals to gun-toting rodents and lawnmowing moles, Taxidermy Gone Wrong is a wonderfully weird collection of curiosities that will amuse and astonish. Bringing together scenes nature never intended, this full-color volume showcases a wide range of bizarre creations on display and available for sale around the world. From a swearing squirrel in a London antiques shop to a murderous mouse serving arsenic in a New York storefront, no animal—or macabre tableau—is off-limits. Taxidermy Gone Wrong presents the very best—or perhaps the very worst—of these bizarre anthropomorphic reconstructions.
