do not need any prior experience for this class. Each student will leave with their
own finished piece.

Its a long day, bring a snack!

Animals are sourced through roadkill, scraps from other taxidermists, donations, abatement/nuisance work, pet industry casualties, frozen feeders, and discards from the food service industry.
