[BCMA] Life-Size Animals for Exhibits

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv]

Hi Lia

Do you want a real taxidermy mule? FYI we've worked with a company called Agro Arts - Ross Agro for fabrications of models. He is very good and lives on one of the Gulf Islands these days.

If you want real perhaps contact Taxidermy association.

Best of luck!

Subject: [BCMA] Life-Size Animals for Exhibits

Good Afternoon BCMA Community,

The Cumberland Museum & Archives is looking for a life-size mule for its new mining exhibits. We are flexible re: material, and this would be a photo op/engagement piece for children. I've searched the internet and found some less-than-stellar options, so I thought I would try the local museum community in case anyone has tips on where to procure such oddities.




*Please note the Cumberland Museum & Archives is closed to the public until Spring 2021 as we undertake a large scale renovation and update our exhibitions and programming*
