Any idea who this handsome chap from the Dead Zoo might be?

I’m browsing through the Dead Zoo website to try to find inspiration for my personal spirit animal for a totems art class I’m currently following. What would your spirit animal be and why? #mastoart #deadzoo #spiritanimals #artjournaling

Some people are wrapping #christmas presents already. Personally, I'm looking forward to unwrapping this specimen.

I wrapped this up a couple of years ago, so it could be boxed in while we did works on the Dead Zoo. Now I'm keen to unwrap it, so I can do a condition check, to be sure it's OK.

Can you guess what it is 😆?

@PaoloViscardi Hello Paolo! I find the #DeadZoo so interesting as an artefact-as #NaturalHistoryMuseum in #Dublin was part of that #BritishEmpire triumphalism over all creatures&resources so part of #Irelands #History. I first visited in 1970s when brain was unformed cabbage. Today I'm a fully formed #vegetarian& despair that people still kill/eat/capture animals& am not a fan of a #LiveZoos...but hopefully natural history knowledge instils a love of living beings and congrats on the refurb😍

Met an old friend over lunch. #nminh #deadzoo
