PROPER FIELD CARE

Mammals
Animals, coyote sized or smaller, should not be skinned unless by a
taxidermist. Don't gut the animal. If you can't bring the specimen to Cassel
Taxidermy immediately, put it in a plastic bag and freeze it.
Birds
Do not gut the bird. Bring the bird immediately to Cassel Taxidermy or
freeze it in a plastic bag, being careful not to damage the feathers, including
the tail. If the bird's tail feathers do not fit in the bag, do not bend them.
Let the tail stick out of the bag and tie the bag loosely.
Fish
Do not gut your fish. Bring the fish immediately to Cassel Taxidermy. If you
are unable to, wrap your fish in a very wet towel and put it in a plastic
bag, making sure all the fins are flat against the fish's body and freeze it.
