See the above Associated Press article. Part of it (above the Smithsonian)
says:
"Biologists, anthropologists and zoologists regularly visit the
museum's storage center in Suitland, Md., a series of
state-of-the-art warehouses whose alcoves, cabinets and open
shelves cover the equivalent of 6{ football fields.
The rare outsider can wander past crates of giant squid, long
rows of elephant skulls, stuffed alligators and enough elk and
moose antlers to fill a score of trophy rooms. Next to a tank once
used to melt whale flesh from bones is a freezer of frozen dolphins
stacked like firewood."
Which lucky members of our group have toured there?
