hawksbill turtle head

Hawksbill Turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata). This specimen was being disposed of by Woollaton Hall Museum and I was lucky enough to acquire it. It was brilliantly restored by Taxidermist Derek Frampton. If I had not obtained this specimen it was due to be incinerated. This species is now critically endangered so it is an irreplaceable specimen.
