Subject: Best animal to start with

Great site! Just starting out and in your opinions what animal should someone start with. Deer, squriel, pigeons? I have a deer, racoon, badger, and bobcat in my freezer but really do not want to practice on these. I know I will make many mistakes and cut some unwanted holes but would like to some what understand what I am doing. I also realized being a taxidermist is repetition, repetition, repetition. I have read where starting out you should skin all the pigeons you can get. Their seems to be a wealth of knowledge here and I would like to absorb some and learn from the mistakes of others. Living in SW Oregon their are no Taxidermy shcools here. For those of you that have studios if a person would come to you and inquired to work in your shop for free to help and learn what would you say. I ask because their are 4 or 5 taxidermy shops here and have been cotemplating doing just that.

Thanks for your time and advice
