Okay. I need to ship frozen lizards domestically within the
U.S. They need to be shipped from somewhere else TO the museum.
These are not tissues, but are whole frozen lizards. They are not preserved.
FedEx rules are clear and yes, I'd call these "dead animals" and so
will avoid FedEx. What are the other options for shipping largish
frozen things? Does USPS Express Mail take dead stuff? What about
UPS? I regularly use DHL for preserved material, but sometimes have
trouble finding them and don't know if there is a DHL location near
where these things will originate.
Any suggestions?
Greg
