In taxidermy, mounts are typically stuffed with materials such as polyester fiberfill, foam, or sometimes even straw to give them shape and volume. The skin of the animal is carefully prepared and preserved, often using chemicals like formaldehyde or borax to prevent decomposition. After the skin is fitted over the stuffing, it is often painted and treated to achieve a lifelike appearance. The final mount can be displayed in various poses, depending on the desired effect.
