A humorous look at what happens when taxidermy goes terribly wrong, by the founder of the hit website crappytaxidermy.com. A relaxed toad enjoying a smoke and a brew. A cat with eerily flexible front legs. A smiling lion with receding gums. Whether you choose to laugh or cringe at these spectacularly bad attempts at taxidermy, you won't be able to tear your eyes away from the curiosities inside. This volume brings together the very best of the worst (along with a DIY "Stuff Your Own Mouse" lesson by an Insect Preparator from the American Museum of Natural History), showcasing the most perverse yet imaginative anatomical reconstructions of the animal kingdom you'll ever see.… (altro)

Not only does Kat Su provide an interesting and humorous -- or depressing, depending on your view of the world -- array of crazy taxidermy, but she also includes step-by-step instructions for stuffing a mouse on your own. Not something I'd want to do, but a nice addition for a book on taxidermy!

Note: I received a digital galley of this book through NetGalley. (

I'm not familiar with the tumblr but I like books about taxidermy and enjoyed this collection of photos. It was fun to page through and add to my taxidermy collection. (

A short dead-tree-version-of-a-tumblr that makes for a great coffee table book. I'm more familiar with the @CrapTaxidermy twitter (which has their own book, [b:Much Ado about Stuffing: The Best and Worst of @CrapTaxidermy|22217302|Much Ado about Stuffing The Best and Worst of @CrapTaxidermy|Adam Cornish|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1403397871s/22217302.jpg|41558057]) whereas this is based off the crappytaxidermy.com tumblr. Same theme: a mix of "bad taxidermy, weird-as-hell good taxidermy, and weird-as-hell bad taxidermy", though unlike the twitter this book & blog have sources listed for their finds.

It's funny, sure. But I was expecting more. They are just the same images I have seen over and over again online. Nothing new. I wanted a some background history for each piece. That would have been more interesting to me. (

Divertido e inquietante al mismo tiempo.

Nunca me ha gustado la taxidermia, me parece cruel de cierta forma. Pero las taxidermias mostradas en este libro son de otro nivel. Tan extrañamente bizarras que no pude evitar reírme con algunas, y preocuparme por la salud mental de los taxidermistas en otras.

A continuación algunos de los ejemplos más resaltantes... y perturbadores:

Y por supuesto el wolpertinger.

Si quedaste con ganas de más luego de esos ejemplos, en crappytaxidermy.com hay miles de fotos más *shudder*. Esa es la pagina que inspiró el libro.
