Contact your local game and fish department and see if they have any posters
of local natives.
Kentucky has a really nice set of 4 posters that they have ruined by folding
the whole lot of them up so they fit into cubbies at the wildlife center.
When I was in Texas a few years ago, they also had some very nice native
fish posters, although they tended toward game fish.
