Do you have any experience in taxidermy? Share with us here!
Refinery29 no it’s disgusting and pathetic. Can’t believe you would choose to highlight this.
Sienna White yes! It’s so disrespectful to the animals. They have died , let them rest in peace
Natalie Chen it’s so disrespectful to animals to stuff their dead bodies. Let them naturally degrade and rest in peace. If I stuffed a humans dead body it would be weird. Leave the animals alone
I normally love ur content, why post this?
Anna Farrugia the body was already dead. Taxidermy is also a very old practice you’re being very disrespectful. If you don’t like it just leave and click a new video. To say something is disgusting and pathetic is very annoying of you. Animals will die, some need to kill animals to survive like the Inuits. They reuse the animal and can do whatever they like. Sometimes we also need to kill animals because the population is so great and it will effect the ecosystem. You’re very ignorant and it shows.
The interviewer didn’t seem interested, she seemed uncomfortable and cringing in some moments. Choose your interviewers right.
I mean it was a mood tbh
The interviewer was like a mood of us off camera
i mean she was flipping a dead animal inside out.
@@nicolefurnari ppl pay her to do that (its just a job relax)
H.A ik but still- I wouldn’t be so entertained either if I saw it.
Why choose an interviewer that does not seem interested in what she's doing? There were a lot of times she was cringing.
Athena Devaigne Exactly! It was a turn off tbh.
Yeah, the usually pick interview that isn’t interested
@@Go.at_ these creeps and their weird fetishes😂😂
maybe you should express yourself more respectful
She seems like a really kind person! As a future biologist, I can only admire that she's a taxidermist. Giving dead animals a second life or preserving them for science is really great. I get that people get upset about this, but I don't see any negativity in doing this if you do it with respect and as long as the animals died of a natural cause.
+shannonr Thanks for your feedback and for watching!
I strongly agree
@@refinery29 what lovely resurrections! How does one get squirrels?
@stakeoutrockhound523 you really just have to go out and find them and hope they aren't super decomposed.......I do not know how to stuff I haven't tried it yet......but I have mummified some squirrel limbs and worked with some bones...... I then put those in a shadowbox.....over the past week I've been looking into classes and permits because it seems like that's the proper way to go. I've always been interested in preserving nature. I usually find dead bugs and I try to re create a habit inside a jar or a bottle so it looks authentic....sort of like a dead terrarium.......it takes a while to find an already dead bug or squirrel but if you go out looking you'll find them 😅 just got to lift up that log you'd never lift if you were just going on a walk.
How is biology going?! I just started school to become a biologist and these kind of things always get me excited!
This isn't my cup of tea but her passion for taxidermy is inspiring
+kylitaylors Thanks for watching!!
No it isn’t inspiring. It’s evil that she enjoys stuffing bodies.
Refinery29 why would u post this?? If you are posting this?? It’s disrespectful to animals.
Anna Farrugia are you an animal lawyer they can post anything they want doesn’t matter what you want PETA 😘
@@annacohen-farrugia1786
hun. it's respectful because its honoring its life and giving the animal a second life. a lot of animals taxidermied died from natural causes, and if the animal were hunted it most likely was hunted for their meat.
taxidermy isn't entirely "stuffing bodies". entomology is another kind of taxidermy in which it preserves insects and butterflies.
also, did you hear what that person said? he said that there was a bird who was taxidermied that later went extinct, and now scientists can study it.
it's upsetting that you said this because the taxidermists spend many hours on their works.
if you find it upsetting then you can leave or find more information on it. if you find it not your cup of tea then you can leave.
It’s so uncomfortable seeing her doing that without gloves
yes lol it's disturbing
I died watching that
Hello bubonic plague lol
and long nails.. besides that i loved this haha
I kinda think it like asmr...
This video contains:
• Dissecting, skinning and cutting of dead animals
• Discussion of how the animals were killed
• Discussion of what people know about taxidermy
• Discussion about their limbs falling off
• Laughing at the dead animals
• Pulling off of animal parts
• Showing of multiple stuffed animals
• Sticking of pins into dead animals
PLEASE LIKE THIS SO PEOPLE CAN KNOW IF THEY WANT TO WATCH THIS
I have edited this comment while watching the video
“I stuff dead animals for a living” is pretty telling already.
@stop your welcome don't think the warning before which just said "no animals were harmed" was enough x
thank you for this!
Wish I had read the comments first 🙃
Im ready
I liked the video and Mickey seems like a really nice girl but the interviewer didn’t seem respectful and wasn’t my cup of tea
She was a mood tbh
She was probably forced to do the job, as a person with their own belief I would squirm too
@@babysushi953 yeah but like she was showing her honest reactions
@@h.a3412 sometimes with these extreme things it's hard not to show your real reactions. This woman is probably used to the reactions too. She didn't voice her disdain she just couldn't hold in her reactions to it. And seeing as though she was probably forced to do this job, she's probably not going to hide her reactions to make someone else feel better when she herself wasn't given that same courtesy. So less judging and more just watching the video.
As someone who does taxidermy all the terrified comments confuse me. Also the interviewer isn’t very friendly.
This interviewer is an idiot if you dont want to do the job meabe is better dont do it😡
i mean, are you surprised? They are working with dead animals and that's something new/scary/etc for a lot of people.
yea it's honestly pretty insulting both seeing the comments and how this video was framed, I mean why are all the people in a taxidermy class making endless freaked out or disgusted faces like a child would. are they being forced to be there? did they not realize animals have innards? this video may have attempted to talk about taxidermy in a respectful way and the passion these people have for their craft is clear... but the framing... this video definitely seems geared towards those who think this all is wierd and icky and that's so disappointing to see.
I respect the job as long as it’s ethical but I wish there was a warning, I thought they would more censored. And yes the interviewer was rude. A lot of comments are surprised, disgusted, grossed out because it is raw and kinda gruesome so I hope you can understand that most people hate this stuff but a lot of people respect the career :) I hope that gave you some insight
I think so.
Everyone in the coments is freaking out, yall clicked on a video about taxidermy-
and you enjoy watching this?
@@heartsfortaehyung9452 i don’t think we are meant to “like this”. Not in that way at least. Its educational. Its talking about someones life.
@@heartsfortaehyung9452 I do
@@xiaino I like it. And as someone who will (when I'm old enough) become a taxidermist, it's really inspiring.
Bro I wasn’t expecting her to rip a rat in the beginning shesh
The reason she’s doing this is really pure and sweet. Personally I wouldn’t do this but it’s nice she isn’t afraid of doing this.
And it's nice that some people out there like you actually respect it instead of hating on it
@@nonotdrschwa5677 I think it’s really cool but I’d be scared. Props to people like her doing these
She peeled that rat like a fruit roll up
Oh god the Bob's Burgers flashback
It was disturbingly disgusting to watch she got ne mercy in her heart fuckkk
@@monochromaticable don't watch the video if u don't want to see this don't insult other people's interests/ careers just because u don't understand them :l
"No animals were made hurt in the making of this film"- Yeah cause they are all dead!
Of natural causes
RayTheGay hope so
Lucie hdrt most taxidermists take in animals that died naturally. The only exception would be deer or maybe a bear from hunters. Other than that they often work with animal sanctuaries that had animals die from illness, old age, or other complications. They do not kill to do their work.
@@OpossumOnTheMoon To add on to what you said: Even with the hunted animals, such as deer, all the parts go to use. Hunting yourself is actually a lot more ethical and environmentally friendly than buying meat at the store! The meat feeds a family for months, the antlers can be used for multiple things, the hides and used for art, clothes or rugs. Everything has a use! Nothing is wasted.
@@sharkratty exactly. My family hunts deers and they get so much that you can share it with a ton of different people
I feel like they purposely framed this to give the taxidermists a creepy vibe instead of just presenting their stories. That kinda, ya know, sucks. Jeez.
I may never want to become a Taxidermist, but I can appreciate wanting memories to hold onto and if people relate better to those memories through taxidermy then I would say by all means. Even though this video was a bit taboo due to how our society thinks it was important to watch and it offered a appreciation for such craft. Thank you Refinery29
+katyak We're so glad you got something out of this! Thanks for being here! ❤️
I love when these badass, gorgeous and talented women go into a male dominated field and absolutely kill it! She really reminds me of my best friend who would literally pull over to pick up roadkill and taxidermy it. Everyone judged her so much and thought she was creepy but I knew her and she had such a love for animals it continued after they died and how many of us self proclaimed animal lovers can say that? Not me! She took her own life last year and I miss her every single day. Rest easy Lexi ❤️ I love you babygirl.
I’m happy your dead friend Lexi’s love of roadkill will forever be immortalized in this youtube video comment section
@@goyjin5676 unnecessary
@@goyjin5676what is wrong with you?
Lexi sounds like an awesome person, RIP
From the reactions, I'm guessing a lot of you have never been to the Natural History Museum.
Or any other kind, it would seem ..
They sure as heck have never been to an outdoor recreation store. Everywhere you look, you'll see at least 5 taxidermy deers on the wall
I'm 16 and I've always LOVED taxidermy, I definitely want to try it with my rats when they die, as a way to always keep them close :)💕💕
idk why i chose to watch this while I eat
Same
I'm eating dinner while watching this 🤤
Ya...I just finished eating..yuck
I'm eating snacks while watching lmao
I made the same mistake
They probably should have used a warning, but it was fascinating overall.
Yes, absolutely a warning would have been good! 😯
I think it was in the title 😅
the title is right there
maybe “I stuff dead animals for a living” could have given you an idea
+michelerodriguez Thanks for your feedback and for watching!!
The host's face when she squashed the baby rat...classic 😂😂😂
+euclid LOL!!
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
I acctually loled
Euclid Ikr!
LMAOO YEAH
The way she peeled that rat was more smooth than me trying to peel a mandarin 😂 😂 😂
The way her voice changes at the near end as she talks about taking care of dying kittens made me think twice and acknowledge she's not weird after all.
Ah! So glad to see these topics talked about there’s so much controversy around it. Awesome job !
+chloemorris So glad you enjoyed!!
I didn't know Kendall Jenner was into taxidermy
XD
She looks like Kendall Jenner before plastic surgery
Lmao
I find the girl in the video prettier
I didn't know Anya Taylor-Joy was a taxidermist
Oh my. This is tough to watch, no hate, just not for me.
Ryt it was really disturbing but I can't believe this still exists
BTW really bad idea to eat while watching this
Fatima Ahmed they only have certain times when they can hunt the animal and most of the time it is in a controlled environment it also keeps the food chain stable. I’m not saying it’s good and I wish that it also wasn’t a thing but it has been for a while and it probably won’t change for a while
I'm sorry but what did you expect
Faatuush Ahmed it’s taxidermy, what did you expect clicking on the video lmao.
@Kimberly Kingsly then i'm impressed
The way my mouth dropped open sklskskk I was not expecting the full on rat in the beginning
You can tell she really loves these animals and she wouldn’t harm any of them. People will allow their loved ones to be embalmed and shown in a Wake once they’ve passed and I believe this is what this girl is doing as. She wants to take a horrible and sad situation and make it beautiful and she does her art to ensure these animals’ lives and remembered and she gives them a purpose even after they are gone. She knows that her art can really help others deal with grief, she allows them to see death as something more than just an end to a life and for people to attack her for this makes no sense and the commenters saying evil things, they are the real monsters for not respecting her work and her art. I 100% believe what she does is ethical and amazing. If something is not for you, then it’s not for YOU. Don’t do it, don’t watch it, but leave artists alone because if it’s not for you it’s for someone who can find the beauty in it and enjoy it.
I was just not ready to see that first 29 seconds while eating a cookie
Aww this girl is the sweetest!!! I want to take her classes now!
I understand the loss of such a small creature after feeding them for day’s hoping it would live. He died and it was heartbreaking his name is Bravo. For this person to then decide to taxidermy the kittens she personally cared for is brave and beautiful at the same time. When she got emotional talking about holding and feeding those kittens and they passed away, I understand the pain. I shed a tear when she got emotional about it. My Bravo was a kitten.
This was cool to watch I used to dissect things in lab so this wasn’t very gory for me. I’ve always wondered about those who do taxidermy and how they got into it 🤔 so this was a great watch 😊. She looks really happy while doing taxidermy and that was nice to see
+camishawilme So glad you got something out of it!
So no one is going to point out that this video was posted a few years ago. Such a smart way to make sure everyone watches the video though 🤔
+pennquinn This video was originally published on Broadly and is being repurposed by Refinery29.
It seemed familiar
"But, without understanding the context behind something, you don't get it." 🤍
I don’t like how the guy at the taxidermy shop called Mickey “ a budding taxidermist” like sis.... she teaches other people how to taxidermy don’t talk down to her like that..
He probably knows nothing about her. And from the sound of it she sounds more freelance than in a shop. So he probably thought she was new to it.
@@OpossumOnTheMoon most of the old guys always assume we're newbies. It's a problem.
Gurl.. not without protective gloves touching dead animals.
I am really grossed out but its so intersting to watch
I really love this😍I hope I can take one of her classes one day! I have a lot of animal skulls (dog/cat /coyote/fox ect) and wearable tails but I do hope to do what she does and re create a new lives for the animals and it can have a great way to express one’s personality.shes so lucky to have full specimens 😂
the bangs told me what i needed to know
Which is? Lol
Dani Tullis "In case you haven’t noticed, I'm weird.....I’m a weirdo....I don't fit in. And I don't want to fit in. Have you ever seen me without this stupid hat on? That's weird."
@@february6 you judge people off their hairstyles that much, huh? She couldn't possibly just think it's pretty.
Dani Tullis i think you missed the joke here but it’s ok❤️
@@february6 I don't think I did 🙂❤
I'm disappointed that they focused so heavily on gender and age. I would have accepted a little more info about the process of taxidermy, like whats too dead to stuff?. How do they keep the fur from falling apart?.
Far too complex of an art form to cover technically in a 13 minute video, for sure.
I have so much respect for this industry after watching this video! It was super interesting. I just have one question, is it not a required rule to wear gloves in the taxidermy profession? For the protection of the person performing the service. I’ve seen a lot of gloveless hands, long nails and jewelry. I just figured a lot of animals carry diseases. No judgment just genuinely curious ☺️
It is not as far as I know, I'm not professional taxidermist but I do handle dead wildlife. I will cut up mice without gloves, but I'll end up washing my hands afterwards. I'm sure they do wash their hands at least!!
I have a lot of respect for it as well too, very interesting.
A lot of texdermist don't wear gloves cuase it's a safety iusse.gloves can increase the risk of getting cut by cuasing a slip.
My dad taught biology for 25 years and his room was full of taxidermied (mostly by him) animals, articulated skeletons, and specimens preserved in formaldehyde. A lot of commenters don't understand/comprehend that these can be used for educational purposes for students who may have never seen the animals and learn of their biology. Hands on science is the best, also displaying animals in their habitat can show students how they can hide in plain sight, such as snakes. A lot of the negative commenters probably never had a teacher put so much effort and enthusiasm into their passion that inspired generations of students to learn and love and perhaps pursue a career in biology. This was a fascinating video and I loved it.
I used to babysit for a taxidermist many years ago when I was 16, he had animals that he shouldn't have, I remember him telling me. I always remember he had a bisons head
+annettenezpugh OMG! 😳
It's a extremely heartbreaking experience to have an animal die in your hands, you can literally feel the life vanishing into thin air. It feels as if it descends from the top to bottom, in a vibrating, ring movement and then all of a sudden, emptiness and serenity followed by a rather large dose of sadness and despair. The only thing that helps is, knowing that these creatures didn't have to die alone. Some animals prefer to die alone, that is also difficult to accept but it has to be respected. I sincerely enjoyed every second of this Video, Thank you for sharing this. 🙂❤
You can rlly see the passion of mickey for taxidermy and i truly respect that, she does a job most people are disgusted by {i dont mean to offend anybody}
This is oddly fascinating.
+pelviselvis We think so, too!
What a conversation piece it will be when someone spots a dead rat dressed with an Afro on the coffee table 😂💀
“Watch your head and mine too” 😭
I remember how we used to dissect a dead puppy for our Biology Class. It's a thrilling and traumatizing experience at the same time.
A puppy - excuse me !
No no. No. No
This was fascinating! I so love the craftsmanship in this work and the little clothes and poses that the female taxidermist uses are completely charming. I’m not sure it is something I would want to do, but I respect that it is a craft unto itself.
+nicolefields Agreed! Thanks for leaving your input here and for watching!!
what they do is pretty cool but the process had me shooketh
+rainadvin For real!
So nobody bout to talk about them bangs
I feel like its such a death worker cliche lmao. Caitlin Doughty from the channel Ask a Mortician has the same hairstyle
She has them? In this video, anyway. It’s quite old. But people are allowed to have hair different from yours 🤷🏼♀️
All the female taxidermists similar age to her have ‘the fringe’
I think they’re cute
Pretty Thoughtful ibnever said they were ugly
Besides all the hate comments and people who should have read the title, don't stop uploading stuff like this. This was entertaining, and who says this channel has to be just one thing?
My question is how did the taxidermy find the dead animals?
I see this as a educational video and I actually am happy to watch this video
I love taxidermy so much! it's important to scientists as preservation of specimens while being a beautiful art that helps bring a second life to animals. ive recently been considering going into taxidermy myself :)
Forever love watching Mickey work!
Oh wow. This gets me in the feels. I rescued a pregnant cat who turned out to have feline leukemia virus and passed it to her kittens, all of whom passed away at 1.5 to 2 years old
'No animals were harmed' except the fact that many of the animals shown have been hunted...
How did you know? Did you see it yourself? Dont make stupid assumptions.
@@OxOx_XoXo1 Umm, the man in the shop speaks about him and others in the shop hunting the animals??
"during the making of this film" you have to read the rest of the sentence honey
They weren't causally connected to the filming 🎥.
As a teenager studying taxidermy as a possible future career and also making it my last year school project, I'd love for more schools to open up in argentina so people can appreciate the wonders of preserving nature in its most majestic way and learn from the evolution it took to get where they are now.
TH-cam recommended this. I didn’t search for it😐
Came to the comments and found exactly what I thought I’d find. A bunch of people creeped out lol
yeah. it's really disappointing
Omg. I would be terrified to try this, her work is beautiful
the last part where she talked abt taking care of the kittens before they died rlly hits me because I've been in the same shoes. sometimes in july-august 2019 someone dumped 5 premature kittens at the back of my house. they weren't even the premature kittens you'd find if you googled 'premature kittens'. they were even younger.. i knew they weren't gonna live long but me and my siblings did our best to take care of them. after the 4 died and i burried them all, we were left with one kitten. it actually died in my hands while i was watching Moana. ever since I haven't associated that movie with good memories. or even those diy warming pads made out of rice and a sock, they just remind me of all 5 dead kittens
I love this girls passion. Taxidermy is a passion it's not gross
taxidermy is one of the most interesting things ever to happen in history istg
I wanna know how Mickey's 29 but looks 19. That's the real magic here
Maria Cuevas Ikkkk
She sapped those animal's leftover life essence
If it’s hard to watch just tell yourself it’s a cake.
I loved this so much! I really would love to take a taxidermy class one day
the SMELL oh my god
It doesn’t smell... if it does then the specimen is too far gone. Specimens are kept frozen most of the time for freshness until they are worked on
Your passion comes through, especially when talking about the kittens
Is beauty to transform it but I wouldn't try do taxidermy
I love animals but even tho these animals are dead it was still hard to watch their little bodies get cut up. But glad she’s young with a passion.
Great video Refinery! Something I've always wanted to try!!
+karen Thanks for watching!! Let us know if you do!
Ordinary people: perfectly and safetly burried their loving dead pet baby animals.
Taxidermist: let u live again my dear animals... just lemme put out my materials..
I don't understand why but this video was really beautiful
+samlace So glad you thought so!!
The interviewer is very unproffesional
the interviewer is just rude and disrespectful. like what did you expect its literally taxi-dermy. do your research.
Ikr? She didn’t seem to try to act respectful, but of course I don’t know what was going on behind the scenes
You can tell not a lot of people in these comments grew up hunting, once you’ve skinned enough deer rabbit and squirrels it doesn’t bother you as much lol.
This is so interesting!!
Nice work i really wanna learn it
This is soo fascinating! I'd love to take one of her classes
I can imagine a rich family taxidermize their most loyal pet dog or cat.
I feel like there should be many ethical questions raised, yes no one is doing that. For example, why do we, humans, give ourselves the right to take a dead animal, do whatever we want with their body, display it and hold it?
They're dead
@@KazzieBB How does that make any difference? We wouldn't do the same thing to a human, so why do we do it to animals.
@@Xselleton ...Have you never heard of an open-casket funeral before? Any dead body that is not cremated is opened up, cleaned out, filled with chemicals, and then painted. I prefer cremation myself, but it is very much a common thing that happens.
@@p0lyxena yes but that is not the same thing. That process is done so that the ritual of saying goodbye to loved ones could be done without people getting traumatised. The body isn't kept for display in a room of the family or whoever wants it. When we think of human bodies, we treat them with respect so that the person could 'rest in peace' but we don't do the same thing with animals even though we recognize their rights, like making sure they survive, have natural habitats etc. I am not saying thinga like this should or should't be done, I am just raising the question of why is one thing different from the other. Why would one thing be considered immoral and the other just something we do as a part of culture. More things we just do in society should be questioned. That is my only point.
Xselleton That’s kind of a curious question when you think about it. I have no need to stuff my dead pets, who died of natural causes, and instead buried them like I would a human loved one. I assume both men and women are likely to have something stuffed and it’s not only a “man’s thing” but maybe it has something to do with hunting and showing off your trophy, your prize? Most people I talk to about it, that’s their reasoning.
i adore and respect her so much
We still need these people. I hunt with my grandpa, and he doesnt know if people still do this. It's good to know the art is still alive.
trilemma dilemma stuffing a poor innocent dead animal isn’t art. Or is what Ed Gein did art too?
@@siennad587 they were already dead
You hunt ???? Why are you so evil??
@Natalie Chen yeah ik😊
@Natalie Chen it's ok😊 I've done that before
Lol why are people freaking out over a taxidermy video? I mean y’all clicked it 😂 maybe google before watching next time. Also the rat skinning was cool
Ps: the interviewer rolled her eyes right away haha! What a joke. She expected it to be a clean experience?
I love the way this is edited! It reminds me of a Wes Anderson film.
If The interviewer wasn’t comfortable with exploring the taxidermy practice, ya should’ve found one who was; her disgusted attitude towards the taxidermy specialist was a bit rude. The practice can definitely be uncomfortable for some but that doesn’t excuse rude behavior.
she kinda look like Kendall Jenner
More like Anya Taylor joy.

Me: excuse you
If y’all like taxidermy and weird fiction, you should read Kristen Arnett’s “Mostly Dead Things.”
This was so interesting! I love her passion for her work.
My friend and I are planning on learning taxidermy together oneday so watching these videos give me more passion
imagine if your body was treated like that when you died.
It kinda is
It basically is
Dude. I'd be dead.😶I won't feel anything.😂
@@natsbones OMG, thanks;)
And?
I really hate taxidermy. I just wish people could just let dead animals bodies decompose naturally like the earth intended. I’d much rather see an alive rabbit than a stuffed dead one when it comes to admiring the beauty of nature.
a lot of people who do taxidermy want to give the animals another life, like the main girl mentioned. if it’s done in a disrespectful way then i understand, but if not then who are you to judge?
totally understand what you mean, but I think that I rather have dead animals that die naturally taxidermy in the sake of science than alive animals trapped in museums, zoos, and science experiments
@@LinhTruong-eh5gj it seems so disrespectful to play with anyone's corpse.I don't even eat meat...so this was really disturbing for me.
Ena Lo the way I think of it is that taxidermy of animals is like when we agree to donate our body to science when we pass away. You don’t see alive humans trapped in museums and zoos for people to see. As for science experiments, most humans gave permission to be in a science experiment. Animals were captured and experimented on. I think it’s better for an alive animal to live it’s life in the wild where they belong. As for taxidermy, when an animal passes away, it is preserved for the sake of science and to give the animal another life. I know that you don’t like taxidermy partial because you’re vegetarian, but with the taxidermy bodies of these animals, we wouldn’t be able to save millions of endangered animals out there. There’s a reason why most humans donate there bodies to science, they believe that their body can be a source for scientist to find new discovers and new cures to the world. If you don’t understand it, that is 100% understandable.
Now, the world don't move to the beat of just one drum
What might be right for you, may not be right for some
I have no words...... i thought this only happened in Madagascar 3.
My guy I-
omg that was just... i cant even explain how it was
