[NHCOLL-L:5268] life animals

[John Grehan]

Do any of the institutions on this list that have both live animals
(including both vertebrates and invertebrates) housed in the same
building as biological collections and/or exhibits have any defined
categories of how the live animals are ranked or classified with respect
to their actual or potential threat to the collections or to public
health. I would be very interested to receive copies of such
policies/protocols as we are in the process of assigning threat levels
to the organisms that we have, or may have in the future, at our museum.
