Birds 'live on' as woman practices her taxidermy: 'Valid and important part of conservation'
Fox News
Elle Kaye, 31, has been practicing taxidermy for a decade — she's based in the U.K. and specializes in birds. Today, she's mentoring the next generation of young taxidermists.
She said she originally wanted to be a veterinarian but realized she "wasn't academic but had a creative eye," as SWNS noted of her abilities. "This work will teach us about the planet and the species on it." She's a "massive bird lover." "It reminds me not to take every day for granted." Maureen Mackey is managing editor of lifestyle for Fox News Digital.
Later, when studying fine art and sculpture at Loughborough University, Leicestershire, she started looking into taxidermy and said she "fell in love" with the art.
