A bizarre collection of stuffed animals could fetch up to 2m when it is
sold by a Cornwall museum.
The Museum of Curiosities is home to a menagerie of 10,000 Victorian stuffed
animals.
The museum, next to the Jamaica Inn on Bodmin Moor, gets about 30,000
visitors a year.
But now the inn's owner Kevin Moore has decided to sell.

Stuffed frogs are for sale

Mr Moore said: "It was very fashionable to have taxidermy on your
mantlepiece in Victorian times, but it is not really in favour now."
Nevertheless, figures of up to 2m for the collection have been discussed.
The museum was opened in 1861 by taxidermist Walter Potter.
Tableaux include a kittens tea party, cricket-playing guinea pigs and
swinging frogs.
