ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a taxidermy system and method for recreating the head of an animal species. The taxidermy system comprises a taxidermy form in the shape of the head portion of the animal species, at least one eye socket in the taxidermy form and at least one eye insert to be placed within the at least one eye socket. Each eye insert is formed by a simulated eyeball and a capsule surrounding said eyeball. The capsule is formed from a flexible, shape memory material configured to have details such as representations of muscle, eyebrow, and eyelids. The method for recreating a head portion of an animal species comprises the steps of providing a taxidermy form in the shape of the head of the animal species, which head has at least one eye socket, providing at least one eye insert to be fitted within the at least one eye socket, the at least one eye insert having an eyeball and a capsule formed from a flexible material surrounding said eyeball, inserting the at least one eye insert into the at least one eye socket, placing a skin over the taxidermy form, and tucking a portion of the skin between an underside portion of the capsule and the eyeball.
