SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (MITCHELLNOW) It seems some people Sioux Falls don’t want to part with the Brockhouse taxidermy animal collection so easily. A group has filed a petition challenging the City Council’s decision to surplus the Brockhouse Collection that was agreed upon last week. The approval would allow the city to send a majority of it to the University of Notre Dame’s Museum of Biodiversity. Petition organizers say voters should have the opportunity to vote yes or no on the City Council resolution. The petition is currently available to sign at Abby Normal’s Museum of the Strange off I-29 at the Harrisburg exit. At least 76-hundred signatures are needed to try and force a vote.

The petition is currently available for signatures at Abby Normal's Museum of the Strange, and organizers are aiming for at least 7,600 signatures to force a public vote.
