I love my pets, but I'd never want to have their skin taken off their bodies and stretched onto a piece of plastic and used as decoration. It's just weird to me.

In itself, nothing wrong with Taxidermy, It's a great use for a hide that would otherwise just rot.
Now, here's where I DO have a problem with taxidermy... Poachers killing animals for the sole purpose of selling mounted animals.

Most states have laws against selling taxidermied animals unless you can prove you purchased the animal or obtained it legally.

You hit the nail on the head... states
However, I don't think the poachers care if customs seizes that gorilla hand from Joe tourist, because they already got paid on their end.

I originally only posted the site as a joke, seeing as the only thing he could take care of would be a preserved animal.. lol but they obtained all their animals legally from what their site says.

I did taxidermy and it's pretty easy to get permits or receipts.

We probably should have also asked after the first post what his expectations regarding snake keeping were. This would have limited the back and forth quite a bit.
