Dataset Description

Denver Museum of Nature and Science (DMNS) Bird specimens (Arctos) for GGBN
Description	The Denver Museum of Nature & Science Bird Collection houses approximately 57,400 specimens from around the world (1842 - present), with a focus on the Rocky Mountain and Great Plains regions. The collection includes study skins, skeletal material, taxidermy mounts, frozen tissue samples (~10000 individuals), and associated parasites (ecto and endo; curated separately). Growth of the collection continues primarily through field collection and salvage activities. A collection of approximately 7,000 egg sets and nests is curated separately.
