"Since 1950 Geraldton Fishermen’s Cooperative (GFC) has supplied premium-quality Western Rock Lobster, commonly known as crayfish here in Western Australia, to customers across the globe. GFC’s members, fishing along a thousand kilometres of WA coastline, take pride in their Brolos brand, motivating them to catch and produce the world’s best rock lobster product." https://brolos.com.au/our-story/ #rocklobster #crayfish #museumtaxidermy #museumpreparator #preparotor #taxidermyaustralia #australiantaxidermy #fishingwa #taxidermist #crustaceans #museumboolabardip #boolabardipmuseum #BoolaBardip #changesgallery #perthwa #westernaustralia https://www.instagram.com/p/CIZ9-SdDaan/

02.01.2022 ~ Western Grey kangaroo Joey ~ Macropus fuliginosus ... Diaphonized specimen on display at the New BelmontHub. @belmontcouncilwa This technique of preservation was created by G. Dingerkus and L.D. Uhler, scientists in 1977. The process of diaphonization, also known as "clearing and staining." The specimens are placed in 13 chemical baths, first fixed in formalin, then rended transparent in a solution of trypsin a digestive enzyme that break down the flesh. Then placed into solutions of dyes that stain the muscle, bones or cartilage. Once the process is complete you are left with a transparent flexible specimen that allows you to identify bones and cartilage structures as they exist in the body without any displacement. ( side note, The denser and larger the tissues, the longer it will take for any stains to penetrate significantly) #belmontmuseum #belmonthub #museumtaxidermy #museumpreparator #preparotor #taxidermist #taxidermyaustralia #australiantaxidermy #perthtaxidermy #perthwa #westernaustralia #australia #diaphonized #diaphonization #clearingandstaining #kangaroo #joey #Paws #feet #macropod #museum #perth https://www.instagram.com/p/CIpFBlhDj-2/
