Wanted Specimens

Here at That Little Museum we are home to over 400 specimens of nature but we are always on the hunt for more cos we are greedy like that!

Below you will find a list of specimens what we are currently looking for so if you have any of these that you no longer need and would like to either donate to That Little Museum or name us a price and we will see if we are interested.

We are also open to offers so if you have something that's not on this list and you'd think we would like then please feel free to contact us with as much information s possible.

(Unfortunately we are not open to peoples pets what have passed away only exotic animals)

If your a taxidermist and have offcuts of fur, skins or bits what you would normally throw away in the bin then we would love to own them! Please get in contact with us.

If you are a zoo or private exotic animal owner and have a freezer full of passed animals then please get in contact too!

Anyone who donates specimens to us gets their name shared on this website with links to their website included and shared across our social media platforms.
