If a taxidermist had the necessary permits to collect and process specimens, whether domestic or international and then donated his collection of taxidermy specimens to a museum in the mid 1970's, does the museum need to have current permits to posses the specimens? What if the museum does not actively collect specimens-by way of staff or donations. I would be especially curious to hear how museums with Natural History collections deal with the issue of permits, if needed. Does one need a permit for each specimens and/or species, or can a museum have a blanket permit?
I have looked at AAM, CITES, USFW-federal and state, several listserves and have found nothing on how museums deal with old taxidermy collections in their possession when it comes to permits.
Thank-you
