# About me
I'm secretive, not liking to be bothered unless I know who I am being bothered by very, very well. I will be kind and civil to those who are kind and civil to me. I will simply ignore those wanting to pick a fight or force their opinions and beliefs onto me, finding great amusement in their wasted breath and time. (I will, however, step in and speak my mind when I believe an artist, regardless of medium or trade, is insulted. I have no patience or respect for anyone who insults those who work their asses off to make beautiful, fascinating creations.)I am very interested in all forms of taxidermy. Pelts, mounts, skeletons, etc. I find it fascinating and beautiful in many ways. I own several pieces myself, and intend to improve and increase my collection as the years go by.
Now, I used to hate (and I mean to the point of being violently sick to my stomach at the sight) all forms of taxidermy, regardless of it's reason or source. I don't remember exactly when I began feeling differently about it, but something changed, and I truly started to respect and admire those who could so skillfully preserve creatures to where they seemed so alive, and yet, were completely frozen in time. From there I grew to realize that even though these creatures no longer walk among the living, their presence should never be forgotten, no matter how they died.
So now, I collect them, so that they will never be forgotten.

I don't tolerate stupidity or ignorance, seeing as one is only as such because of an unwillingness to educate and change themselves. Therefore, if you find that you've been blocked, take the hint. :D

As long as you don't kill the animals for the pelt or taxidermy, then great collection!

Nope! None of them were killed by me personally, and none directly for their pelts. The foxes come from a yearly Renaissance Faire, and the dealer gets them from various different survivalists who only take a few animals a year. The coyote comes from a local antique mall. He was labeled as a fox, but I suspect the reason he was taken was because of the "stigma" that surrounds coyotes in general.
