Found this poor dude out on a desolate road, so covered in mud and debris I thought he was a coyote. Turned out to be some poor dog, someone someone wasnāt missing.
On nights like this I like to take him outside, always on a warm little blanket, so we can look at the stars. I think heād like that.

Long time no posts, social media has been taxing and I had to take a break.
Went on a late honeymoon to Yellowstone a bit back and husband got me these beauties on our last day. A grey wolf and a mountain lion! Small mountain lion but I donāt see them often. I couldnāt choose so I went outside where there was a connection and I could check prices, figure out which one I wanted and he came out with a bag and said āI decided for you.ā And surprised me with both of them.
Had to spend an hour re-arranging the display case to fit that massive wolf, itās bigger than my bear skull!
āWould it hurt if a tarantula bit you?ā Just slam two hot nails an inch into your skin with a hammer and itāll feel about the same. Except if itās an actual envenomation itāll hurt more for days. T. stirmi I got from a friend. Finally getting through some backlog in my freezer with this quarantine. I have so many tarantulas and scorpions to pin!
Got this Gator skull from Forgotten Boneyard at the expo the other day! Iāve wanted one but none have been clean enough for me to justify buying one. Well this one was just gorgeous!! Iām so excited and this is now the largest skull in my collection!!
Reposting Content...
TBH I donāt really mind if people repost my taxidermy/vulture culture stuff on other sites that I donāt frequent but please, Please, PLEASE...
DO NOT REMOVE MY WATERMARK.
Seriously, I am now going to have to start putting my watermark OVER the main part of the image because Iāve had to file a few DMCA requests on reddit because some people have cropped out my watermark and uploaded it as their own work.
Donāt be a dick, Take a moment to link back to the page of my blog you found it on. Itās better to admit that the work isnāt yours than to be embarrassed when your account gets closed because of copyright infringement.Ā Ā
Itās not hard to post a link w/ image and sayĀ ālook what this person did!āĀ

A beautiful elk rack I found at a flea market the other day for cheap. Tag on it says āTaken in 1976 @ Hay Parkā Gonna clean him up, stain it, and mount it in the stairwell. So happy, my first set of Elk antlers!
So I'm planning on doing a photography project focused on road kill, which will require me to walk down roads looking for it, but I know at some point I'm going to come across and animal that didnt die after begging hit, is there a proper way to put that animal down if its beyond help? Or is it best to leave the animal till it passes?
I had a friend who was driving down the road and ended up seeing a ādeadā bobcat. She picked it up and all of a sudden it started hissing and squirming and she dropped it and it ran off. She was really lucky that it didnāt scratch or bite her.Ā Ā
If you find an animal thatās injured the first thing you should do is call animal control so they can handle it by either taking it to a vet or possibly putting it down if it canāt be saved. If the animal is in pain it may lash out or bite or end up hurting you. Some animals are tough and even if they look like theyāre beyond help they may still have the energy to defend themselves in that situation.Ā
Thereās no real answer since everything is situational. Something small like a rabbit or turtle will be easier to put down and less likely to harm you, but larger animals can sometimes take the hit then take a while to die and in that process could be potentially helped. Iād say just call animal control and wait by the body then let them handle the situation. If it happens to pass on before they get to you it was most likely not going to make it anyway, and I think at least for me hurting the animal even more to shorten itās life by a few moments isnāt worth the emotional trauma for me of having to kill an already injured/dying animal.Ā
If you feel like you will be in a position to dispatch an animal, and you want to be able to do so, you need to be taught in person by someone with experience. Jackals advice is great - donāt attempt to dispatch an animal unless you are 100% confident in your abilities because if and when you fail to do it properly, or believe you failed because you donāt know what to expect, you will jusy cause yourself and possibly the animal unnecessary suffering.
If you want to be able to dispatch animals, look for courses in your area, or talk to people who raise animals for meat/fur/resources and learn how to do it properly. It needs to be a practical learning experience.
The best thing you can do for a snake that has been hit [or other reptile] is to destroy the brain. The brain can stay alive and transmit for up to four hours, so itās really important to destroy it asap. As cruel as it sounds, a good, hard stomp with the heel of a boot does the job. I personally use a knife, but thatās also because Iāve skinned so many I know where the brain is on all the native species. [yes it changes from species to species....]
For a lot of smaller animals, like prairie dogs and rabbits, cervical dislocation is the best option. You use something like a stick [a snake hook in my case] to pin the head down, right behind the skull. You grab the back legs and as fast as you can, pull UP on them while putting pressure on the stick. This dislocates the vertebrae from the skull and while the body will still kick or move a tiny bit, the animal can no longer feel anything and the suffering is over.
For cervical dislocation, honestly Iād contact some rat or rabbit breeders in your area. Odds are, they use this method. Itās quick, itās clean, and itās best for the animal.
I went out on an adventure a few weeks ago and found some goodies thrown into a dump site. Looks like a badger and a bobcat. I was really excited to find the claws and I canāt wait to get them cleaned up.
FiancƩ brought me a coyote head last night from his cousin. The moment he stepped out of the car, all the local coyotes started screaming. They were so close they sounded like they were just down the street... Pretty spooky stuff
Jonesy, the domestic cat I cleaned up.Ā

Ā āWallaby skulls are freakinā wild.ā
OP, can I use this as a reference for a relief print? If you don't mind, I'll send you one of the prints when it's done :)
Go for it!! I canāt wait to see how it turns out! :3

VultureĀ Etiquette at Expos
Please, if Iām a vendor and you keep bothering me about my āprocessā for my wet preserves or anything like that, and when I donāt go into full detail, donāt keep pestering me about it. Or get mad if I donāt go into detail. I have my own process and recipe for wet preserves and my drying process. Because honestly, Iām not gonna give out myĀ āprocessā to someone who doesnāt wanna do the work of research. I have spent months refining them. Iām not just gonna give them out to someone who steals specimens from breeders and ghosts them when they ask for special specimens back.Ā
Donāt be a dishonest dick in the vulture community, we will find you.
The perks of making friends with breeders, you find out whoās a shitty vulture in the culture. Because these breeders now know I prioritize my clients over just turning a profit and I actually care about the specimens and their feelings about their animals. And also, Iām local, I canāt fuckin run from them lmao. I even tell them āI'm kinda bad at responding to messages, if an email goes unanswered for a few days, give me a prod and Iāll do my best to answer your questions!ā and almost all of them responded withĀ āokay! Iām bad at responding too so feel free to give us a little nudge too!!āĀ

I need to get into the habit of fleshing my hides and salting them instead of just vacuum sealing them in the freezer.
Yesterday I had my boss take over the front desk for me and send me out to a hangar because the line manager had something for me. Turns out a baby raccoon fell from about 75ft up and died. He said he heard them screeching and found it, figured Iād want it. I asked for gloves and a box or a plastic bag. He brought back a shovel too and handed the shovel, I just told him Iāll use the gloves. He needed to hold the shovel in case momma decided to chase me.
Momma was watching us from the top of the hangar while I collected the baby. Just at that age where they start following mom around, but they donāt have the dexterity and coordination needed to follow her around the rafters of an airplane hangar.
Couldnāt take him home in the beginning of my shift, so I filled two bags with ice and sandwiched him in the box. My boss wanted to see how big he was so I showed her. Heās now in my freezer and Iāll work on him this next week.Ā
Then I had a pilot tell my boyfriend that he almost brought a fresh badger for me on his plane but the rental car didnāt have any floor mats and he didnāt have a bag.Ā
Iām so happy Iāve got the good reputation of the dead collector around work. They also now have my number in the line check withĀ āif you find something dead or a snake, call Kat.ā Itās so great.
