VIDEO: Portland Taxidermy

Mounting a mouse with taxidermist Debee Smith

By EMILEE BOOHER

In light of the story on Portland's growing taxidermy scene in WW, The Right Stuffing, we sent A&C intern Emilee Booher to film exactly what goes into mounting a dead animal.

WARNING: This video shows a dead mouse being cut open and turned inside out. If that kind of thing upsets you, don't watch.
