I use a menu of a restaurant like a poster. I haven't ordered from them. It's a simple large burger menu.

Yeah, it's who I suspect gets most of the taxidermy stuff. I mean, if you do it yourself, I guess there's a pride in your craft thing, but it really does seem like insult to injury to go and kill something then display its carcass as a trophy. Seems barbaric. Really, the only kind of taxidermy I could support is vulture culture stuff, where the subjects are ethically sourced (read: Found on the side of the road already dead). Still weird if you go overboard, but there's a grey area where you can have something between "propped up elk carcass designed to look alive" and "collection of pinned butterflies"
