I was listening to a very interesting podcast this morning from HowStuffWorks about taxidermy, and thought - why didn't I have one of the last of my pretty tilapia mounted (they died out when the cold weather came last Fall)? That would have been neater than just using them for compost, and the white ones are very pretty to look at.

I grew up with a 5 foot long muskie from Canada on our basement wall as well as a bass or two that my Grandpa caught (he was an obsessive fishing enthusiast).
