Manchester Museum has undertaken a full review of our collections due to an upcoming capital development project. We have recently completed a review of our large and varied natural history collection. A small percentage of the collection, no longer fit with our Collections Development Policy and therefore has been earmarked for disposal. We would like to offer these items to other museums or institutions where they might find a new home. This includes some boxed taxidermy. Please see the list below and images attached.
