Giraffes always stand out in the crowd.
A Michigan taxidermist transports stuffed giraffes in his pickup truck on a busy road when he spots exotic animals creeping creepy in the bed of a vehicle.
The creature's photos went viral, causing concern. Many have questioned whether the animals are real, criticised giraffe hunters, and joked that African hoofed mammals are toy R-US mascots.
“My partner on his way home from work saw something that really looked like a giraffe in someone's truck bed.” The first poster was posted on Facebook on February 27th.
“Does anyone know anything about this? Does that even have a real lol?”
The national cries have led to taxidermist and big-name hunter Darren Wenner setting the record straight.
Wehner, who works in St. Clair Flat's taxidermy, said it was commissioned by an unknown museum to preserve and mount the giraffe that died naturally in old age at the zoo. Fox 2 reported.
He said he was 60 hours later on the project when he saw him cruise on an artificial replica in Macomb County.
“My job is to save them.
“Some people may find it strange or different, but for me it's art. When we receive it, it's not different from leather. It's just leather with hair on it.”
