That is absolutely vile. I'd be asking why it had died, as it doesn't look very old at all, which brings up the issue of death by natural causes or at the hands of that sick person
I am such an animal person and anything like this make my blood boil, and if you had any respect for your own pet that had sadly died, then you'd ensure the end of their existence was dealt with the upmost respect and dignity, as you would any other member of your family . You don't go and have your mum or uncle stuffed and sat in their favourite chair because that's what they always liked, so why would you think it's a suitable idea for your pet or in fact, any animal.
Rant over. |

I don't see the huge deal in it to be honest but as I've always said I'm a fan of taxidermy, I imagine it's hard work getting hold of dead animals like this.
I've always said that when my big girl does eventually die I wouldn't have a problem having her skinned and used. |

| I don't really see the problem with a trade in dead animals provided it has died of natural causes or has been killed humanely. If no suffering has occurred then its no different to any other animal we humans kill for food. I really cant say anything, mainly because I would be a huge hypocrite as I am a meat eater, I eat meat in every single meal so I cant say its wrong to kill things for human use as some guy is busily killing my Sunday Dinner as we speak. So it may not be going for meat but if something has died, why not use the corpse. Taxidermy really isn't my cup of tea, but if someone can use the skin I'll eat the meaty bits inside lol. |

| His whole page is for taxidermy so it's not like he's some weird man sat at home slaughtering animals for fun but I don't agree with the hunting and killing of animals to make ornaments and handbags though... Killing animals for humans to eat I, as a meat eater obviously condone :) |
