This paid the bills, while in the background they could focus on the development of their taxidermy business. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">By 1886 taxidermy was taking the world by storm. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/a-guide-to-french-immigration-law\/\">Customs and immigration<\/a> patrol was far more lenient than it is today, which allowed travelers to bring home animals and specimens gathered on foreign trips.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_20620\" style=\"width: 1006px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20620\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20620\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/img_6003_bisparisian-days_xs.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"996\" height=\"664\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/img_6003_bisparisian-days_xs.jpg 924w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/img_6003_bisparisian-days_xs-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/img_6003_bisparisian-days_xs-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/img_6003_bisparisian-days_xs-816x544.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 996px) 100vw, 996px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-20620\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Maison Deyrolle &#8211; by Maison Deyrolle &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.deyrolle.com\/photos-videos\">Sourced from their website<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The Maison Deyrolle was taken over at this time by Jean\u2019s grandson who shared the same love of nature and natural history that the men who preceded him had. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The taxidermy house was already thriving, but Emile Deyrolle took it to the next level. Many schoolchildren in Â鶹APP were able to study the anatomy of animals and insects solely thanks to the educational boards that Emile created.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Between that time and 2001, the Maison Deyrolle saw many different owners and functions, somewhat straying from the taxidermy path at times. It was only recently in 2001 when a man named Louis-Albert de Broglie purchased the house and business with the intention of restoring it to its original purpose. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The house was stripped, revamped and restocked. It opened as the educational house that its original owners intended it to be, filled with taxidermic creatures, information boards and collectables. <\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_20622\" style=\"width: 1428px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20622\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20622\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/dsc_8657.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1418\" height=\"944\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/dsc_8657.jpg 924w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/dsc_8657-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/dsc_8657-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/dsc_8657-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/dsc_8657-816x543.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1418px) 100vw, 1418px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-20622\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Maison Deyrolle &#8211; by Maison Deyrolle &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.deyrolle.com\/photos-videos\">Sourced from their website<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Then in 2008, a tragic fire raged through the first floor of the Maison Deyrolle, wiping out 90% of the specimens with it. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Thank\u2019s to public donation and auctions the house was able to reopen just a year later, with a bigger and better collection than ever before.
