Download or read book How to Stuff Birds and Animals written by Aaron A. Warford and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2019-12-18 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to Stuff Birds and Animals is a manual by Aaron A. Warford. It provides instructions in amassing, preparing, mounting, and preserving birds, animals, and insects. Excerpt: "When a quadruped is killed, and its skin intended for stuffing, the preparatory steps are to lay the animal on its back, and plug up its nostrils, mouth, and any wounds it may have received, with cotton or tow, to prevent the blood from disfiguring the skin. The fox will serve admirably our purpose as an example. Therefore, Reynard being procured, we need not say how, lay him on his back in the same position as before recommended; and, having first stuffed the mouth with cotton and tied it up, and measured his neck and body with rule and calipers, and noted them, proceed."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manual of Taxidermy: A Complete Guide in Collecting and Preserving Birds and Mammals Possibly the political troubles in which our country was involved had something to do with the great ornithological depression which fell upon the pop ular mind. Strange as it may appear, however, for a period of thirty years after the completion of Audubon's great work, not a general popular work of any kind was written on birds in America. Then appeared Samuels' Birds of New England, pub lished in 1867, a work which apparently did much toward turning the popular tide in favor of orni thological study, for from that time we can perceive a general awakening. Not only did the newspa pers and magazines teem with articles on birds, but in the five succeeding years we find three impor tant works on American ornithology announced as about to appear: Baird, Brewer, and Ridgeway's History of American Birds, of which three vol umes have appeared, published in 1874; May nard's Birds of Florida, issued in parts, but af terwards merged into the Birds of Eastern North America, completed in 1882, and Goues' Key.
