That's actually quite cool - pretty well preserved.
Shame it's almost definitely been slaughtered for that cause. |

| Not sure if it's illegal or not though unless you can prove the animals were poached there's no law against doing that to your own deceased animal. |

He's a taxidermist though that's his profession, he probably buys dead frozen snakes to work on.
I don't really mind it, think it's quite an interesting thing to be able to do, I've always said I'd be happy to have any of my snakes worked on by a taxidermist when they finally croak. |

But that comes back to the debate of them earning a living and being able to feed there family.
I wish there was a better way for them to feed themselves but needs must. Unless you have seen alot of the poverty in these types of country's it's hard to understand. |

| Probably skinned alive too to preserve the skin. I've seen this in animal rights videos its awful, hung up and skinned, left to die. |
