Falkland Island wolf specimens

[edit]

According to this forum, the Otago museum is one of the few places in the world to contain a taxidermy specimen of the extinct Falkland Islands wolf. If any users here are in the area, would it be possible to take some photos of it and post it on commons? Thanks in advance Mariomassone (talk) 10:32, 23 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have a photo I took of it in storage, but really the museum should release its images (like these ones) under a Creative Commons license. I was negotiating this with them in September, and there may be something happening in April 2019. In the meantime I'll contact them and ask if they would change the licensing for their Falklands wolf specimen at least. —Giantflightlessbirds (talk) 18:07, 23 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I have uploaded some high-quality images to the commons of this specimen that are better than those that were first requested. They are in the Falkland Island wolf page.MothmanNZ (talk) 03:53, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
