**Warning: Some of these photos are (not surprisingly) a little graphic.**
Despite the busy spring and summer I had adjusting to the new apartment and job, I did manage to do a few taxidermy projects, including mounting a lovely badger and learning some new techniques for skinning (which I practiced on a squirrel I'd found as road kill in Griffith Park).
Working on the badger:

| All done! |
