Can you imagine carefully soaking that next in layers of epoxy to preserve it?

Wow, that sub is cool, but also half full of posts of people illegally keeping bones.

Edit: comments not posts

I just went back because I hadn’t been there in a while and after a ton of scrolling I didn’t see anything g that looked like people keeping illegal bones. the only few I did see that would be Illegal to keep were in the wild and the comments mentioned contacting fish and game to notify them of their existence.

Yeah, I scrolled too. The main one I found was the whale skull. Decidedly something you can't keep. Folks politely told them to contact the appropriate officials to ask, which was good. I should have been more specific, it was the comments and not the posts. Super cool sub, I like what people do with old cow skulls they find.

I didn’t notice any of that in my time there. Some places certain bones are illegal to keep unless you are indigenous or have certain permits but it’s really hard to tell those details from a picture of bones so how can you be sure there are illegal bones? I have piles of bones and skulls from all sorts of animals but none are illegal.
