BONES >:3
We did an owl pellet dissection in environmental sci today and my teacher let me keep the bones :3
I’m going to clean them when I get home. My collection is growing (I also have a deer skull that one of my uncle’s dogs found and he let me bring it home)

Imagine a Yautja who's mate is into taxidermy...
They don't skin their kills themselves and instead bring home the entire creature, letting their mate take care of it.
They start seeing the human's taxidermy as a new form of trophy and display it proudly to other yautja.
Eventually the human is asked to produce taxidermy for other yautja because it shows how truly gigantic some of their kills are... MAYBE THE YAUTJA ASK FOR TAXIDERMY OF THEMSELVES

To me the thing about osteotechnics and taxidermy is that even after being long gone, every specimen is still admired; it was impressive when it was alive and it still is.
You can see what remains and think what took for it to be like that, especially when you are working on a piece. You can see the dry eyes, feel the weight of the cold body and how hard the heart is despite appearing so fragile. Maybe this is the first time a human hand caress it's furr or feathers, soft to the touch. If you are careful enough, the perfect connection between every system will help you understand the way every living thing functions with the precision of a machine.
You can look at them and see what death will do to you, what you are going to become, and embrace it as a process of transformation rather than a terrible fate.
It is the way we live again.

Is vulture culture mean to animals?
More people need to understand the difference between overconsumption and recycling when it comes to animal products. I am a bone collector and a furs collector but I refuse to buy from a fur farm-as should everybody-yet some people just don't understand how I could collect animal byproducts without doing that.
Pretty much I live in a mountain woods town and there is roadkill everywhere so it isn't hard to find bones. I only get bones from the ground (meaning already decomposed bodies with no flesh left and they are usually already pretty sun-bleached) and I would consider getting them from ethical hunters if I had the need (meaning hunters who kill animals to feed their family and never take more than they need, they usually use all of the animals and have no problem selling the carcass or the bones and fur if they have the time and energy to skin it themselves).
All of the furs (mostly tails) I have are from ethical farmers or roadkill, I only buy from trusted people who I know didn't get them from a fur farm or aren't a fur farm themself. Most of them are taxidermists (who by the way can be ethical about this too) who found roadkill or had to kill a fox that was eating their chickens or something and decided to use most of the body to honour the dead animal. Admittedly some things do go to waste though like the meat and guts, but in my experience, people usually leave them in the woods for the crows and vultures to eat (or small mammals sometimes).
This is how most vulture culture esc people I know do this and the majority of us do not give in to overconsumption of animal products.
It's actually better in my opinion to use all of the animals like our ancestors did rather than throw it out. Soooo next time you see someone wearing a tail on their backpack or who collects bones or something. Please don't just assume they are anti-vegans and hate animals or something because most of us actually love animals. For me, that's why I do this, to honour the poor dear or possum who fell victim to someone's car. And also remember that not everyone who is not a vegan or vegetarian is eating store-bought animal products, even if most of them are.
PS: I also think everyone should educate themselves on the overconsumption of animal products and think about their actions. I live in Canada so most of what I have learned pertains to that and the Hudson's Bay Company. But even just looking up the type of farm that beef you bought from the store came from is a good idea. If you are uncomfortable eating meat from a place like that, you should think about what you buy. This modern human world is full of overconsumption and disrespect for other animals, 'we' justify it by thinking humans are superior. But how can a species be so cruel and superior? The truth is they can't, we are animals just like the rest of them.

This giant crystal fox tail I’ve been holding onto for quite awhile, thinking I’d probably keep it for myself, but I’ve decided to list it after all 🦊
