What to do with a dead owl?

["Greg & Val Clancy" <>]

Hi Peter,

Just freeze the specimen and take it in to the Museum at your convenience. 
A 'phone call would probably be best to make sure that someone is there to 
receive and store it.  I am not sure of the arrangements in Melbourne.  I 
know that Walter Boles at the Australian Museum in Sydney is always happy to 
get specimens.
Include a piece of paper with the species name, date, location (lat., long. 
if known), cause of death (if known), collector's name and contact details.
