Default Looking for animals.

I am looking to buy full animals for taxidermy purposes. Just getting started and would like to buy any available species for reasonable prices. I would be most interested in Marten, Mink, Weasel, Fisher, Fox, Coyote, Wolf, Badger, Raccoon, Beaver or Muskrat. Animals must be complete, not skinned and preferably nice specimens.
Please send me a pm if you can help me get started.
Thank you.

I have a black bear i shot about a year and a half ago. It is skined to be a full mount. It is salted and frozen. The head and paws have not been skined. You can have it if you can pick it up.

Im in Edmonton.

Yeah sorry guys, looks like I can't buy animals unless hide has been tanned or the animal is one that no license is required to harvest it. I am still interested in anything that fits that description.
Thanks

Just go slap a hundred dollar bill down on the table at any fish and wildlife office in the province and they might sell you such a license, then you can buy whatever you want.

Another law that needs changing. Times change but the law stays the same forever and ever.
