The Charles R. Conner Museum (CRCM) houses a vertebrate research collection. The collection includes specimens from around the world, but the geographic emphasis is on the Inland Northwest of the US. The vast majority of the specimens are from Washington, Idaho, and adjacent states. As of 2012, most of the (non-pickled) bird and mammal records had been entered into the computer database and are available online. Records for the pickled specimens (fish, amphibians, reptiles, and birds) will probably not be available online until 2014. UPDATE (Apr 2024): The CRCM is in the process of updating their collections and republishing as taxon-based datasets. The birds have been remove from this collection an published as a stand alone dataset (https://www.gbif.org/dataset/378c96e5-4652-4e2a-9592-74bd71798f33). Mammals and others are in process.Additional info
