--- Sending for Kevin Hynes at the NYSDEC Wildlife Health Unit --- The NYSDEC Wildlife Health Unit would like to conduct necropsies on snowy owls found dead to determine/confirm cause of death. In some cases we can skin the carcasses for mounting or study skin prep and deposit them with permitted museums. Please contact me if dead snowy owls become available to arrange for shipping or transport. Thank you in advance for your assistance. -Kevin
