Cut store-bought rubbing alcohol to about 55% to preserve it. You might even want to inject some directly into the body cavity, but I've VERY seldom done that. I haven't had any problems not doing it, but I'm not trying to preserve fragile internal organs, either. Straight rubbing alcohol is usually in the 70% range which is to concentrated (or so I've been told by people that preserve museum specimens),
