I have yet to have a single whale skeleton project that felt like it was a repeat of a previous project. That wouldn't seem like such an unusual statement if I had only done a handful of whale skeletons but this was my 20th whale skeleton.
Just when I couldn't imagine a skeleton project getting any better, one did. In the spring of 2013, I was invited to go to San Francisco to work on an orca skeleton for an exhibit in a little place in Golden Gate Park, called the California Academy of Sciences.
Joanie Sarno, a science teacher from New Jersey, came to Homer, AK, and in five extended days, we got the turtle skeleton assembled. This had to be the most difficult skeleton I've ever worked on!
I've done a lot of land mammals but only one other wolf which was a similar project done with school students for Denali National Park.
