    Don't even have a feather from it on your work bench or shop floor.

    You could donate it to a local institution with a zoology museum. Many museums (including mine) work off of salvage only now so donations like that are invaluable to them.

    Between South Africa and America.
    Any public school would be happy to have it.

    Many many years ago, I was able to get permits from the Feds for such birds. I would mount them and donate to the local public library.
    I had an open letter from the library and finally had bugged the lady at the Fed office, she had given me an open letter for the bird goign to schools or libraries.
    But that was 30 years plus years ago.
