other exotic animals that were all legally obtained and we have the permits and tags for. I know that ebay is an option, but I'm looking for a place that could buy a large collection.
All of these items are mounts incidentally.

permits? tags? it doesn't matter, in the US and Canada, it's illegal to sell wild animal parts unless it's special items like bear gall bladders, etc.
you are not allowed to sell them.

Try Bass Pro, Cabelas, Sportsmans Warehouse or any other large reputable hunting gear store. How do you think they get all those taxidermy displays.

You are two months too late - but - 10 months early for next year. It is common for people selling such itmes to attend the State of Alaska fur auction held in Anchorage Alaska during the Fur Rondy held for two weeks in February every year. You can post flies at the auction, local hotels and newspapers to attract the folks who come to Alaska just for the auction.

Your next option is to take an ad out in "Fur, Fish, and Game" the bi-monthly magazine for trappers and taxidermists. It is also a place where buyers and sellers of exotic legally trapped and taken animals are bought and sold.

Good luck!

Find an auction house. But they take a cut, anywhere between 10% and 30%.

Send me your contact information and I will have a museum that I do curator work for get in touch with you. They do not have a polar bear. It would also be more likely to get their attention if they have a better idea of what all you have to offer. For the record, they will be MOST interested in North American specimens rather than African or Asian, etc. They usually take my advice on taxidermy, and I am always willing to help them get together with potential customers like you. We'll look forward to hearing from you. Thanks in advance.
