Interesting.....taxidermy is making a fad sweep in upscale US living because of an elitist "faux hunting lodge" trend in expensive decorating.

I didn't know that people hunted domesticated animals and then put them in faux hunting lodges...?

I think there's something to be said for pointing out the connection between these two unrelated items...

So having stuffed animals in faux lodges is considered a... faux pas?

Thankfully the taxidermy trend has not hit here in Jersey yet. I'm still waiting for the awful accent trend to die down....

Whatever happened to roadkill taxidermy, anyway? I'm all for that. I mean that's just kooky and awesome. I prefer just the skulls and skeletons myself, but you know....
