Some stuff about the stuffed frogs in Split

Froggyland, a museum in Split, Croatia, describes its treasures:

“The collection consists of 507 stuffed frogs of a common European frog species (lat. rana esculenta). The frogs have been stuffed in a very demanding way, using a taxidermy technique through the mouth, which is an extremely complex and time consuming process, so the exhibits are devoid of any external incisions. Comparing the Ferenc Mere’s collection with similar collections made by other authors, it is evident that Ferenc Mere was a master craftsman of taxidermy of small animals…. This collection is comprised of 21 exhibits which show thematically arranged frogs and depict various everyday life situations.”
