hello,

I work for theNational Conservation Training Center, U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service, in Shepherdstown, WV. We are working on a series of exhibits here,
including one on animals described by or named after Spencer F. Baird and C.
Hart Merriam.

I am looking for mammal and bird mounts for the exhibit, including:

1) Baird's Sparrow (Ammodramus bairdii)

2)  Baird's Sandpiper (Calidris bairdii)

3)  Merriam's Chipmunk  (Tamias asiacticus merriami)

4)  Roosevelt's Elk (Cervus elaphus roosevelti)  Named by Merriam

5)  Merriam's Wapiti  (Cervus elaphus merriami)

6)  Baird's Snowshoe Hare  (Lepus americanus bairdii)


Any assistance or suggestions on where we might find these mounts would be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
