A trunk full of white tailed deer antlers as well as three smaller moose antlers, donated by a man in Dryden, Ontario. These will help me make antlers that can detach from the skull a number of times while keeping their durability. I will then be able to mail a buck skull without worrying about damaging anything. Whatever is lying around in the house might seem useless to you but it can help me a lot with upcoming projects and improving my future presentations as well.
As I am just an everyday teacher with a peculiar hobby, I do not have the ability to obtain too many different specimens except from road causalities, trappers in North Western Ontario and the Ministry. If you or anyone you know has something that would add to the presentations or even act as a double, it would be greatly appreciated. I am always wanting to make more sets of skulls or specialized sets such as carnivore, herbivore, omnivore or family sets like grazing, woodland, birds, and wetlands. The flesh of the animal can still be intact and it can be frozen and mailed or picked up by me if you are local. It can also be just a skull or a set of bones that you have lying around. Many local creatures are taken for granted in many areas and to the less familiar urban areas it can be made into an interesting and beneficial presentation for students.
The process for every donation might be different depending on the state of the specimen, but if you would like to follow the Contact link to get in touch with me, I am sure we can work something out. I am always quick to respond to emails on my website and will get back to you promptly. I look forward to talking with you soon!
