Leatherback sea turtle, this skull is roughly the size of a basketball. it was hit in the head with a boat propeller at some point in its life and survived. The crack actually runs the entire length of the skull and there's a second blade injury in the back so it was hit twice. More details below4yr ⋅ Schnare-taxidermy ⋅ r/natureismetal
Coolest animal I've ever found myself, it has no visible head or even a body, it's organs are all in its legs and it doesn't even need a heart to pump it's blood. Badass little sea spider3yr ⋅ Schnare-taxidermy ⋅ r/marinebiology

We don't often get opportunities to share photos of work in progress, but today's projects were too colourful not to. We are taxidermists, we get our animals from other pet owners or museums and zoos, some of them are destined to go back to their original owners and some we sell.4yr ⋅ Schnare-taxidermy ⋅ r/bonecollecting

Deformed wild boar we did a few years back, we were discussing it in another post so I figured we'd post the picture. You can see in the link below how subtle it is in the surface, but when you see the inside of the jaw it's quite dramatic.4yr ⋅ Schnare-taxidermy ⋅ r/bonecollecting
Sorex maritimensis, this is actually an adult but we have a bunch of baby and adolescent skulls. Contrary to popular belief they're actually not a rodent but more closely related to a hedgehog.4yr ⋅ Schnare-taxidermy ⋅ r/bonecollecting
