[NHCOLL-L:2553] Short-nosed Sturgeon

[Shirley S Albright]

Hello all!

Risk management rears its ugly head once again!   We have been asked to 
loan an old (early 1900s) taxidermy mount of a short-nosed sturgeon to a 
sister organization.   They will insure the loan, but we haven't a clue 
what to insure it for.    The species is considered endangered in New 
Jersey and the specimen itself is an historic relic.    Any ideas?
