Anything you don't want searched be sure to fill out a good description on the declaration. If you leave it vague they will search it and hold it up.

Live animals cannot be mailed unless the mailer has entered a related Agreement with Canada Post prior to mailing. Bees, day-old chicks, parasites, leeches and some other small cold blooded animals can be mailed under certain conditions (see Section 3.2.1 Suggestions for how to package and wrap items of ABCs of Mailing).
Dead animals or their parts, including, for example, the whole carcass of a beaver or a mallard duck, the antlers of a deer, hides, pelts, nests or eggs, may be acceptable for mailing, provided all applicable requirements are met. For information, please contact the:
CANADIAN WILDLIFE SERVICE
ENVIRONMENT CANADA

the contents must not leak or emit offensive odours
the cover of the package must bear a full, accurate description of the contents

Thanks guys sounds like the skins are ok i wonder about tonkin cane I'll have to check that out , thanks again
-
Yup I've received many skins from the U.S. And bamboo as well. For anything wood related I always write "processed lumber for bow and arrow making"
-
I sent arrows of Tonkin last year. The only items I saw that they don't like is wood with bark, and wild bird feathers.
-
Ryan, joe thanks guys
-
I usually label stuff as Arts and Crafts materials. For sure don't say feathers or leather.

>:D "Native american inspired art" worked for me. It was a sinew backed osage bow and 6 arrows.
