    The squirrel looks like to be blessed as a super hero is a burden? Either that or he’s just taking a shit?

    How much commission are you getting off this BW?

    As I thought, first ebayer feedback for a “super squirrel” is from 27-Jan-07, been selling taxidermy since a couple of years before that, but before ebay started leaving the description on feedback. Knew these had been around for years, but watch the prices rocket now if it’s going viral at the moment…

    You know your life is going off the rails when you’re fitting zips on dead animals.

    They don’t have opposable thumbs to be able to use a zip?

    The zips big enough, and the ‘claws’ small enogh to grasp and zip/un-zip without the need for opposable thumbs.

    I know someone that would like a zip fitted on a live fox.
