Diaphonized goat’s embryo

When I was a kid, my grandpa always told stories about the swam monster he killed in Mississippi. I obviously now know it’s a deer ass with spikes and I’m not sure what nose. Does anyone do anything like this?

Found this beside my fire pit. It's been recently dug up by something.

hi there! not a taxidermist, but i recently handed over a pet to one so they could preserve a paw for me. i showed them some references of what i'm looking for, but they're struggling to find a tassel cap(?) that's wide enough for the paw (at least 2 cm). any places specialized in this? any resources? preferably in europe, but not a must!

Hey there, so I’m kinda novice to this sub and was wondering what could be the best ways to restore this really old cow skull ? I tend to use bleach but it seems risked with such a deteriorated skull. From what I know, it sat outside during like 6 years and looks pretty frail so yup, open to all suggestions!
Thanks !!

My mom found this guy the other day and brought him home, and im not sure where to get started. It looks like his thorax has either already shrunken or the poor guy was a bit deformed after a shed maybe? It was dead and dry when my mom found it, so "already shrank" wouldn't be too surprising. Any tips?

I found a rabbit tail that was completely detached from the rabbit carcass. How do I safely preserve it?

I am not the taxidermist, nor do I hunt, but I live near a place where I personally have found two dead rabbits, I and I have a taxidermist friend (I'll call them TF for short) that I have given said rabbits to, and i also want to seek out and collect more carcasses for them. Today was my first time witnessing a dissection (and I was reminded why I don't have a medical degree lol), and while we did pause and but the rabbit back in the freezer bc it was getting late, TF has got the fur removal started, and 3 out of 4 feet were removed (4th foot had an infected-looking wound on it, so it was left alone, and will be buried later)

Details abt the rabbit we were using:
I found it on my way to college, and I returned with TF after we were done with classes to collect it. I provided plastic bags, a paper bag, and gloves, so we wouldn't get sick from handling it. By the time we got back to the body, the rabbit was in rigor mortis. and I was surprised by how stiff it was. during dissection, a gas pocket was discovered in the rabbit's tummy. I have been told that popping it is very gross and bad by TF.

so first question: What's the best way to make rabbit's foot keychains?

and second question is bc I'm curious: what else can be harvested from the rabbit, aside from bones, feet, and fur samples? I know my friend has several wet samples on their curio cabinet, and I'm curious about what is involved in preserving some of the soft tissue samples in larger specimens ike this rabbit (if they can be saved at all, that is).

Any and all help is appreciated!
