[NHCOLL-L:2629] Preparation of chondrichthyan skeleton

[Alexandra M. Snyder]

A docent with our city Biological Park, Education Department, would like to 
do a skeletal prep of the jaws of a sting ray, a mortality received from 
the aquarium.  They asked me for my advice and since I do not have any 
experience in preparing skeletons of these fishes, I volunteered to find 
out.  If anyone on this list has information or ideas on how to prepare 
cartilaginous skeletons I would appreciate hearing from you.  Thank you.
