I am in need of the indefinite loan or institutional transfer of one whale
vertebra(back bone) for an exhibition under development.

Ideally,  I would like the vertebra from a blue whale, but another
species will do.

I have authorization from NOAA and National Marine Fisheries Service
to accept such a specimen from a qualified institution.

Can anyone help?

Thanks!
