Injecting a baby rabbit

Submitted by Carol on 3/20/06 at 2:24 PM. ( ) 67.76.170.137

HI

I have a very small baby rabbit that was found dead, It is way too small to deal with skinning and I know you can freeze dry or inject these little guys. What is the best thing to use for injecting to prevent shrinkage and discoloration? I have injected bird feet before, but never a tiny mammal. Any sugestions will be appreciated.

Thanks

Carol,I've tried to inject small birds and theres just too much shrinkage that occurs.Your probably better off to carve out a small piece of foam to fit the little guy and be done with it.
