Here is a message from a colleague (Lisa Spaven) in Canada's Department of Fisheries and Oceans. She has a sea turtle from Prince Rupert and would like to get it mounted for display. It is most likely a Green, but could be an Olive Ridley, Loggerhead, or Leatherback knowing BC waters.

Anyone know of a taxidermist or museum who has experience with preparation of sea turtle mounts?

Please reply directly to Lisa =>       Lisa.Spaven at dfo-mpo.gc.ca

You know anyone that has a knack for turtle taxidermy?‎ There's a carcass in Prince Rupert (recovered a few years ago) that DFO would like to retain up there for educational and display purposes. They're having some trouble finding anyone who has any experience with turtle taxidermy in BC. Got any suggestions?
