<p class="MsoNormal">We’re putting together a temporary exhibit, < 3 months, and the idea to include a Meerkat has come up. Does any museum in the U.S. have a full mount in decent condition that they’d be willing to loan? The few we’ve found so far have been
on permanent exhibit in their parent institutions. Please let me know off list if so!<o:p></o:p></p>
