When taxidermy goes awry

Kat Su’s collection gathers examples of botched taxidermy, where attempts to recreate animals produce strikingly odd results. The book pairs these images with a hands-on “Stuff Your Own Mouse” lesson by an insect preparator from the American Museum of Natural History. Humor and animal curiosities shape the volume, which invites a look at the gap between anatomical reconstruction and the peculiar creatures these efforts produce.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Adults who enjoy offbeat animal humor and unusual curiosities.
  • Readers interested in taxidermy, animal anatomy, or intentionally flawed crafts.
  • Fans of the crappytaxidermy.com website.

Book overview

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.
