Moar Dead Animals!

Taxidermy animals dressed for and playing or doing one of the following: roller derby, doubles tennis in whites, a 4-some of golfers (must be in traditionally dressed with knickers), cricket players in whites, disco dancing in 70's disco clothes, synchronized swimmning with nose clips or a karate class.
( FORE! )
Obviously I went with golf. I thought the plaid would look cool. :D
I went to a local taxidermy place, and asked if they had any animals I could borrow. They said, "Sure!" You can have these ones here! Actually, she let me pick out of the ones that were available. They didn't even want a deposit! I picked a badger, the duck and a squirrel. The lobster is actually mine. I'd bought it ages ago at an auction. I thought it was about the most ridiculous thing I'd ever seen, and needed to own it immediately.
I went to a discount fabric store and found some plaid and argyle, then picked up some 'model magic' for the shoes.
THAT SQUIRREL WAS SO DERPY I JUST FELL IN LOVE WITH HIM!
Once I had them dressed, I took them out to a golf course, and asked the Pro if I could pose them on the course. The Pro said, "sure!" :D
Then, after posing them FOREVER, I asked a nice couple to pull their golf cart back a few feet so that it would be in the shot. When I returned the animals, the lady liked the squirrel's costume so much, that she left it on. :D
The lobster is in my store, still wearing the plaid. :D
