[QUOTE="Larimar, post: 4137088, member: 17180"] Hello! I'm Lari. I'm looking to get into taxidermy, but I currently do not trap or hunt, which makes things hard. I'm more about the art than the hunt! I am going to be looking for animals to practice skinning/tanning on. I know a few people hunt and trap coyotes, raccoons, opossums, etc and don't do anything with the bodies. [u][b]Would anyone be willing to part with 'garbage' carcasses for free?[/b][/u] I'm speaking in terms of animals you don't do anything with. They must be frozen or freshly killed, to prevent slippage. I will not be making a profit off whatever animals you give me. I do not have a taxidermy license, so I am not allowed to make money off any of it anyway. I just really, really need the practice. Why not practice on animals that were going to be left out? +I can pickup frozen animals any day. +If you give me GPS coordinates of fresh carcasses I can pick them up, with permission from landowner. +If you are a taxidermist needing an intern, let me know. I would need to purchase a license before working with you, but I'd love to learn! +Legal game only, please. For obvious reasons. +This will not be until some time in 2016. I need to prep first and get a new car! Thank you! Feel free to send me a private message or comment here. [/QUOTE]
