Steve the Stuffer

DateTuesday, June 26, 2012 at 02:13PM | CommentPost a Comment | |

Thanks to Vern Cummins and Jamie Gallant for sending me their documentary video of Steve Massam, chief taxidermist at the Falkland Islands Museum and National Trust in Stanley. As Cummins and Gallant write, Massam "sees his work as a means to bring about awareness and understanding of the plight of animal species in this part of the world. If there was one animal he’d have liked to work on that he hasn’t, it would have been a Bee Hummingbird, but his eyesight, he feels is past it now."
