My name is Rod Gardiner. I learnt the art of taxidermy as a Melbourne teenager 55 years ago, and spent the last 30 years specialising in marine taxidermy.

I've stuffed fish & crocodiles for North Queensland tourist bureaus, snakes for the Ingham Ambulance Service, even ‘road kill’ for Parks & Wildlife. But I most enjoy working for people who fish, I enjoy preserving memories.
