    Fur samples needed

    I am looking for fur samples of all the local fur bearing animals found in the Fraser valley mountains. These are going to be used for a community forest teaching display for elementary school students. Probably 6”x6” samples to be mounted on a board for kids to see and touch.
    I’m asking for a teacher friend who runs the program.
    Please pm me if you have anything you can contribute.
    I will post animals that I do acquire , otherwise I’m still looking for them.
    many thanks

    Did you try calling a local taxidermist? They might have some that their willing to donate.

    Especially if you can provide the Taxidermist with a tax receipt.

    I think I have a plastic tote of a few fur samples that I was given for flytying. I haven't found use for this in 20 years so you're welcome to it if I can quickly find it - if it still exists. I'll look tonight and will reply. I'm in Abbotsford. Someone will need to do the identification and I don't even remember how many different types are in the bin any more.
