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."
