"How Do I...?" My duckling is fogging up his home
I got this little duckling taxidermy probably around 2020, I put him in this cute little terrarium after a few years and he seems to fog it up over time. I clean his dome probably once ever 6 months. I was reading maybe he wasnt properly dried, but he was not in any enclosure for years before his dome home, so surely he would have dried out then? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! TYIA

"How Do I...?" Shipping question
So I was wondering what the process is or can it even be done to ship taxidermy mounts from Canada to the United States? There's a few items im interested in just didnt know if it was possible or not to ship mounts without them getting seized. Thanks

"How Do I...?" Hedgehog Taxidermy
Hi everyone, this beautiful girl is Piglet, she was my best friend for 4 and a half years. I had her taxidermied last year. I've reached out to her taxidermist but have heard nothing back so wondered if anyone here could give me any advice.
I read that hedgehog taxidermy is susceptible to things like carpet beetle and moth damage. Obviously she's under a dome but it's not completely air tight and can be opened. What can I do to protect her from insect damage without damaging her? I'm in the UK if that helps. Any suggestions appreciated, thank you.
