However when we started investigating into the matter; we came to know that the pictures published by the newspaper were not of ghosts actually but different taxidermy models.

If you search "deer ass taxidermy" in Google, you will find a large number of pictures which look alike the ones published by the newspaper.

Yes you read that right, that is a DEER ASS TAXIDERMY.

It is also pertinent to be mentioned here that taxidermy is a special art of preparing and stuffing the skins of different animals to make models which are used as displays in museums.
