Persian cat skulls, adult and kitten. I am honored to have these in my collection, and sad that their anatomy is Like That.

Scrounged up some coyote bones today (I’ve been monitoring this guys decomp for a few weeks) and discovered that his right femur and humerus are wildly malformed. On the left is what each bone should look like— on the right is the malformed one. Every other bone was normal from the cursory look I got… I wonder what’s up with this guy? Birth defect, weirdly healed breakage, bone cancer?

Here’s a few more angles

Update on this: the answer appears to be healed fracture. Meaning… he was likely hit by something and the impact went to his upper right leg area, breaking both the femur and the humerus (clean or near-clean break to both). This absolute menace SURVIVED, kept doing his thing, and lived long enough for the bones to fuse back together all fucked up and significantly shorter because of the breakage. It’s possible that the protrusion in his femur might be some calcified foreign body that was wedged in there during the injury. He would’ve probably walked strangely because of the wildly uneven length in his legs. This guy was a trooper. Lived for about 1-3 years judging by the wear on his teeth.
