We had a taxidermy deer head in my old apartment. The eyes would creep me out, so I just put some sunglasses and a funky hat on him and problem solved.
It's also a super tough job to do taxidermy. Especially if they also skin and tan them, but most taxidermists don't do that as well. But a lot of pet ones do. It's so hard to get them looking lifelike and looking good.
I am 11 years old,and I have been interested in taxidermy recently. When I'm older I want to be a taxidermist, it can sound "weird" or "gross" for my age but I find it so interesting! I'm not sure how to tell my parents this they might think it's gross.
I mean she died, and afterwards was made into something she could be remembered by. Its not like they did it when she was alive. And if you're talking about how it was left in the sun and probably cracked in the ear through human hands, yes, that's really sad
@@Eepop_stuffs ain't nothing right about taxidermy in the least bit. Would you want your dead body propped up for display? If so at least you can say so. Nobody asked that dog if it wanted to be a decoration in a gas station window, but out of their own selfishness and/or inability to accept death they chose to not allow this dogs physical body to return to nature. Let me ask you this.. How do you feel about Ed Gein making his mothers corpse into something she could be remembered by after she died? Was that also a beautiful art installation.. Or was it the work of a psychotic person who couldn't process death and decided to take matters into his own hands? Taxidermists are the Ed Gein of the animal kingdom.
@@NewYorkFloridaMan Meh, you're really projecting your own subjective views and values over remains onto animals and looking at it from a very human perspective. Most animals care little (if at all) about their remains or the remains of someone they cared about (it's not them anymore). Even when jt comes to other people, many have very different opinions than yours on the matter (you can't even speak for humans in general on the matter, let alone speak for animals on the matter).
@@clockspacefilms3025 Sure, I would have no qualms about it. Heck, you could taxidermy or plasticize my body, put in new joints, and turn my body into a creepy marionette for all I care (in fact, that would be kinda neat in a morbid way).
Not to everyone. I know quite a few people out there that specifically do pet related commissions. Cleaning bones, articulating skeletons, dry preserving feet and other parts.
Personally, I think the opposite. Mounting a pet is full of love and emotions and helps kind of “freeze them in time,” but mounting a deer you killed just feels like using the body as trophy which in my opinion is kind of disgusting.
I love this! I watch a lot of electronics repair videos and the algorithm was like "Yes, okay iPhone, but what about dog?" and I was like "Actually, yeah, let's do this."
I guess it's less of a concern for a taxidermy from the 1990s but for anything older (especially if the taxidermy is an antique), I hope she's careful about arsenic (which was extensively used in taxidermy to help preserve and protect it from pests until a few decades ago).
When things are dead, just lets them be. There’s something so innately disturbing making the dead look alive, very uncanny valley and sad. Id rather know that dog’s body was taking nature’s course instead of collecting dust as some type of freaky “decoration”
Then...don't have taxidermy? Because there's nothing wrong with it. I'm into vulture culture and only currently have one piece of traditional taxidermy, but have tons of skulls and some pelts and wet specimens. Because I love animals. I know plenty of people that have their pets either fully taxidermied or just have bones cleaned.
Ly i dont know but i prefer appreciating and loving animals by seeing them be alive, being individual creatures in nature and having some in my life. But to preserve animal bodies objectifies them in some strange perverted way that goes against nature and that i find vile and sad. thats just my opinion. But hey, If ur into vulture culture go for it, i just really think its icky
@@dingo1666 If this is your idea of honoring the dead, then you are a deranged individual. Having your eyes scraped out and being held together with bondo… why you are even trying to justify this is beyond me.
Wasn’t expecting to hear they were a famous dog from West Virginia, my home state and everything! Just thought that was neat The person did an amazing job restoring them
Ed Gein wasn't a psycho because of skulls and taxidermied animals. He was a psycho because he strung up humans, gutted them and ate their butts n' stuff for dinner.
@@ly9676 You don't say. :) We're not going to agree...stuff for museums isn't too bad, but your own pet or something for decoration is really creepy, and often feels like a mockery to the animal. They rarely look life like or how they used to, just like this example.
@@paft and there's still nothing wrong with it and tons of people collect a large variety of dead things. People chill with having their pets ashes after being burned up, but you put time, effort, and care into cleaning their bones, or doing any kind of taxidermy to them and it's suddenly bad.
@@ivanv.g.750 lmao stfu Pets aren't "slaves" and that's one of the dumbest things I've ever heard. Learn what domestication is. Cause it isn't slavery.
I love the craftsmanship, but I am still troubled that we feel the need to make dead things look alive again…just let them be to their natural decomposition
coyotes look just like dogs, i saw one cross the street the other day, at first a thought it was a stray, but than i focused on the fur color and it was actually a cyote!
Because people can care about what happens to our bodies. A dog doesn't think "oh someday I'm gonna die and my body is gonna be left behind". People can. And some people do donate their body parts to exhibits like the bodies exhibit mentioned. Someone donated their actual penis to the penis museum in Iceland.

Didn’t humans do this before? If we hadn’t done this in ancient Egypt how would we know they even existed? And even more importantly, how would we be able to cure certain diseases without the information provided from the restored bodies of animals and humans from way back then?
For one there's nothing wrong with taxidermy. For another there's actually a lot of states where you can't bury pets and there aren't places to, so your general options are cremation where you keep the ashes or letting your pet be cremated with other animals and not having the ashes. Some people want more of their pets.

Was nice to see a pic of the dog when it was alive.
you did a fine job of bringing her back. I have seen over the years a ton of horrible dog mounts. This one was really not that badly done originally.
That job requires a lot of patience though, she have to take care of every minute detail !!

Taxidermy of a deer you shot (with no emotion attached to it) is ok I guess. Mounting a dog that’s you loved is pretty weird

As an expert she's probably very aware of those things.
“Yo ur dog looks broken”
In the beginning, I thought she or he was lab

There is no amount of many you could pay me to do taxidermy.

Did they hurt the animal or What?
It's a dog so it was likely a pet humanely euthanized for a valid reason. Not killed for taxidermy or any other reason.
Very bizarre.
My next UA-cam search, why we don't taxidermy humans.
Look up body worlds exhibits. We plasticize people
Because people can care about what happens to our bodies. A dog doesn't think "oh someday I'm gonna die and my body is gonna be left behind". People can. And some people do donate their body parts to exhibits like the bodies exhibit mentioned. Someone donated their actual penis to the penis museum in Iceland.
