"Since 1831 Deyrolle has been the taxidermist for Parisians. In the two-story shop on the lovely Rue du Bac, you'll find everything from domestic animalsandlarge exotic mammals (lions! zebras!) to insects, shells, birds, and educational books. Parisians bring their small children here to teach them about the natural worldbecause it feels like abeautiful natural history museum as much as an odd little shop of curiosities. In one room, drawers displaybeautiful insects and seashells for purchase. Asmall gardening shop on the first floor may be of interest to companionsfor whom taxidermy feels icky."
