The future of Natural History brought to you by David Leggett
One of my favourite auctions was Bart the Woolly Mammoth, lovingly collected and assembled by an Ice Age collector in the Netherlands.
His lifelong passion for all things Natural History eventually led David Leggett into the world of Taxidermy. With a career spanning over 35 years and knowledge reaching back for many millions more, David is a well-deserved fossil on the subject in his own right. David has a particular reputation of being one of the UK’s best owl preparators and was the first person to give a live taxidermy presentation on UK’s Channel 5. Besides his many TV appearances in the United Kingdom and The Netherlands, David has worked with the Royal Shakespeare Company, the National Theatre, London's Saatchi Gallery, British Antarctic Survey, Ripley's Believe It Or Not in London's Piccadilly and he served as visiting taxidermist to the Powell-Cotton Museum in Kent. Besides his mastery of Natural History, this wealth of experience also gives him a strong commercial understanding of trading and marketing. At Catawiki, you’ll meet David in Finds category, indulging his interests for Paleontology and Natural History in general as the foundation for his area of expertise: taxidermy. He curates weekly Taxidermy and Fossil auctions and enjoys supporting both buyers and sellers to provide them the best possible customer experience.
