willywonka Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 They're already dead... At least... I hope so!*Imagines skeleton bats, and fluffy owls chasing me!* I should think those animals were dead before taxidermy. I mean,they weren't lab animals who were tested on or killed specifically for the purposes of being mounted and displayed. Depends how old they are - most 19th century stuffed animals were poached for the purpose. (I just know people who are interested in this sort of thing okay don't judge me ) I think you could argue that killing animals in the wild is at least preferable to breeding them for that purpose. Did you see any stuffed animals in SA? I remember a pair of lions in Kruger Park but you couldn't buy them unless you were South African because it was illegal to ship them outside the country. I saw the taxidermy shop in France that Mika mentioned and noticed there was a stuffed lion and I wonder where it came from. Unless it is 19th century and has just been traded around like an antique. It's all a bit mental IMO. Jack White (White Stripes) collects taxidermy animals too. Personally I wouldn't want it in my house. Especially his bat in glass he's so proud of. Guess it's a good thing I don't live there At night, that stuffed bird would freak me out. My dad's a hunter too, there's lots of dead animals in our house too, I never thought it was normal though and I never will. *brrrrr* Like it or not you'll have to live with it...Even coz i only own 3 of them... So if u got used to the three washing mahines u'll live with this too... And for those who'll keep on complaining about it... Stop moaning, wives! Or else...

It's all a bit mental IMO. Of course - but surely not killing them at all, no matter what the purpose, is preferable? Yes - there were stuffed cheetahs in Kruger... At a cheetah sanctuary! You could argue it's for sake of knowledge/seeing them in detail or whatever, but it was plain disturbing when they had stuffed a row of cubs suckling their mother... Mixed messages! The pair of lions you talked about - just makes me feel a mix of digust and discomfort, really. It's another example of when humans decide their own amusement/pleasure is worth more than anything else on this planet. Sigh.

He should tell them about living on a houseboat making raggae music and enjoy watching some elephants or something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokesignal Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Funny??? I found them so so mean and I hated the hosts and really I hope they will be nicer this time. They deserve nothing else than Gertrude stories! Don't expect them to be any nicer. They're always like that. I think they got big as presenters of a children's show and then when those kids got older they went on making programs for grown-ups. Unfortunately, they didn't get any less demented in the process. It's a formula that has served them well, since they've been around for years and are quite successful. It's a bit of a pity if international people watch it, since it's not the type of thing you'd want to export as a country. I'm sure Mika can handle them though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They deserve nothing else than Gertrude stories! I referred to Mika being funny not Carlo and Irene... The hosts weren't really interested in what Mika said the last time, that's why I was so surprised, about the rumour that Mika would perform again in that show. I' m afraid the hosts won't behave different this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 I just don't understand the format of some of these European shows. There are too many people involved and it all seems like some kind of mockery or a trial or something. What was that one Dutch show he did years ago where he just chatted with the guy on the sofa and I think they were drinking champagne or something? I think that's a better way to interview someone.
