These rooms upstairs are full of birds and animals that have been stuffed. They were once alive but when they died (either in an accident or by natural causes), they were preserved by a Taxidermist. The Victorians were well-known for their collections of taxidermy so these displays are appropriately placed at Oaklands House.
