Crap Taxidermy

Crap Taxidermy
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Who the hell would buy this book (my friend apparently)? All it’s really worth is a five-minute flick before you pass it on or leave it in a communal area, unless you’re actually going to attempt taxidermy. It’s a shame that the book doesn’t specifically state where each piece can be found so that you can go and visit it, though of course some might be in private residences. Maybe some people don’t want to be shamed with their results. There’s a horse swelled up so much that you could use it as a novelty beach ball, many ill attempts at mystical animals by stitching two bodies together, and museum pieces so bad they make you wonder how that taxidermist scored that gig. Still, everyone needs a hobby no matter how bad they’re at it. It’s the very best off the net pressed into one book to spread the word in another medium. Just remember that if something looks crap, you can always make it look better with googley eyes.
