We were formerly a natural history museum, but after a few re-brandings we no longer collect and have a largely unmanaged collection. I'm going through the process of deaccessioning nearly our entire collection and trying to re-home our specimens, namely our
taxidermy at this time. I've reached out to our state special agent for USFWS (we are based in the U.S.) but have received no word in some time. I have been able to re-home some to local State Parks, but we have non-local, and African taxidermy mounts that
would not fit with them.<span style="display: inline !important; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" class="ContentPasted0"> We have mineralogy and invertebrate collections as well, but my main concern is large objects that take up a lot of space. <span style="display: inline !important; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" class="ContentPasted1">Does
anyone know of a resource to list deaccessioned objects for other institutions? Is this the best place for that?</span></span></div>
