They can stuff a mouse while you wait, but your tiger will take up to 3 months. The company consists of Mr. Cleary, his secretary, 3 taxidermists, jewellery maker, and business manager. In addition of stuffing and trading the animals, they use the skins for furniture upholstery. We;re still small but turnover is now running at twice the rate of 3 months ago, said Cleary. Unfortunately, the company has suffered a recent setback due to the theft of 3, 000 worth of animal skins.
