A friend of mine has a deer pen and had a fawn that was still born recently and was going to throw it away. I've dabbled in Taxidermy for a while and decided I would try to mount it myself for my own home.

It was one of the harder things I've tried to do and I doubt I would ever try another one. It was very delicate and tedious for my big fingers to work with.

The Monarch butterfly is real and the Morel Mushrooms are also real. ( what a waste)

Here's some pics.

If the mother of the fawn knew what you did she would be your friend forever.
Nice work

Here's a couple of my own deer that I gave a try.




I don't really reccomend trying it on your own unless you got alot of time and determination. .... I learn something new each time I try it.
