Publisher Description: This vintage book contains a complete guide to taxidermy, with instructions for trapping, tanning, fleshing, mounting, and all other related aspects. Complete with detailed diagrams and a wealth of useful tips, this classic handbook is highly recommended for the beginner, and would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "Traps", "Care and Handling", "Devices used With Steel Traps", "Deadfalls", "Mink Deadfall and Walking Trap", "Snares", "The Muskrat", "The Weasel", "The Mink", "The Marten", "The Fisher", "The Coyote or Prairie Wolf", "The Red Fox", "The Canada Lynx", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on taxidermy. |
