Pa. taxidermist lovingly memorializes pets, farm animals

ELKINS PARK, Pennsylvania (WPVI) -- Her career took many twists and turns, from a window dresser, to an aerial performer. And now, Beth Beverly is where she's meant to be: a pet-preserving taxidermist.

Beverly founded Diamond Tooth Taxidermy in 2010. She specializes in "wearable mounts, unusual home decor and companion aftercare."

She carefully recreates beloved animals through the art of woodworking, sewing, molding, and more.

It can take several months for any particular project to come to fruition.

Beverly became trained as an end-of-life doula to provide comfort to individuals in need. She says this skillset translates to helping pet owners navigate their grief and respectfully handling their loved ones.
