Beth, 

The Cincinnati Museum of Natural History has molds for sculpted models of 
a passenger pigeon (one standing & one in-flight pose). The models were 
originally used in their traveling exhibit "Weakening Web: the Story of 
Extinction." Contact Chris Novy at CMNH.

Hello all!
 
Our museum is looking for another institution that would be willing to 
loan us a taxidermy passenger pigeon for our upcoming exhibition 
commemorating their extinction (using panels provided by Project Passenger 
Pigeon -  http://passengerpigeon.org/index.html ). We understand this is a 
long shot as many museums are hosting exhibitions on this topic but hope 
someone out there would be willing to help. We will have the exhibition on 
display from May 31st until the end of October but would be very willing 
to accept a loan for a shorter period, even just for our busiest month of 
July. Please get in touch with us if you are able to help in any way! 
Thanks so much,
