Cat bones, 💔💀 most likely a stay or feral cat that was hit by a car. . . These bones were unearthed when a sweet woman who buried roadkill was forced to move. . . Will you help me find good homes for these little spirits? . . They're all cleaned up & ready to be adored 🌱💀🌿 . . . . . Shop update on Saturday . . . . #igatherthedead #skullcollector #bonecollecting #skullcleaning #skullcollecting #bonecleaning #boneprocessing #vultureculture #death #deadwhenwemet #roadkillmakesmesad #animism #witchyvibes #bonesandskulls https://www.instagram.com/p/ChsJk9Npzyf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Forever finding damaged fawn jaws on old logging roads. I suspect a combination of roadkill caused by early morning logging trucks & hungry coyotes is to blame. I hope the end was swift little one, i hope you did not suffer. I shall drink my mugwort tea and dream of you running wild and free. 🌲💔🌲 . . . . . #roadkillmakesmesad #respectthewilderness #vultureculture #scavenger #rathetseeitalive #bones #foundintheforest #ostealstudios

Black Tailed Deer Rib bundles will be available tomorrow at 5 p.m. (pst) . . Almost all of my deer bones are gathered from dump sites in the woods where hunters leave the carcasses after they collect the meat. . . These are #hunterdumpedbones that I collect & clean to give them new life & new uses (like tools & talismans) . . I never take -all- the bones, only what I can use, and I leave the rest for four legged & feathered scavengers. . . The rest of my deer bones were road fatalities & I do my best to honor them. I often bury or move them rather than collect them. 💔💔 #roadkillmakesmesad . . . . . . . . #igatherthedead #trashtotreasure #honorthedead #boneprocessing #bonecleaning #bonetalisman #boneart #boneidentification #deathgoddess #bonejewelry #ethicalbones #ethicalbonejewelry #ethicallysourced #deadwhenwemet #foundinthewoods https://www.instagram.com/p/CkOn9Q2Sa6J/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Calcaneus (heel) bones from a roadkill deer. Fun Fact : Did you know that bright lights can cause deer to "freeze" in place? Use caution when driving at night or dusk/dawn times. Lets help every animal get home safe. 🌲💀🌲 #vultureculture #bonesofinstagram #odocoileus #deer #skeleton #calcaneus #RespectTheWilderness #roadkillmakesmesad
