Welcome to #SkullSunday! 💀 This is one of the very few pieces I actually kept for myself. I love the little mini witch hat I made for the cat skull. I decorated the inside of the box as well. It makes me happy. www.spinningcastlestudios.com https://www.instagram.com/p/B4IwCrEnH1d/?igshid=m4tk407owx5v

HAPPY #skullsunday! I'm still processing just how awesome my trips to the Royal Tyrrell Museum & Museum of Osteology were, so I've combined the two! . The top photo is a jaw from a modern bowmouth guitarfish (Rhina ancylostoma) below, is a guitarfish from 75 million years ago! . With 47 flattened upper and 50 lower tooth rows arranged in winding bands, guitarfish can crush and feed on the hard shells of mollusks and crustaceans. . Elasmobranchii, a subclass of cartillaginous fishes such as sharks, rays, skates, and sawfish, have been on the planet for millions of years and have survived many mass extinctions. Hopefully with conservation efforts, they'll be here for millions more. . #sharks #sharkconservation #elasmobranch #conservation #guitarfish #rays #fossil #fossilfriday #protectouroceans #fossilrecord #royaltyrrellmuseum #osteologymuseum #skulls #skullsunlimited #teeth

The happiest, dopiest skull ever! Scientifically, bones can tell us so many aspects of an animal's life history, but they're also just plain wonderful to look at. . #skullsunday #grayseal #bones #skull #vultureculture #seal #pinniped #museumofosteology #ilovebones #faunalosteology (at Museum of Osteology)

#SkullSunday…In addition to tracks & scat (poop), skeletons/bones are also great cues for field biologists. ☠️ This dassie/rock hyrax skull, for example, could tell us where the hidden colony of these agile little mammals might be, or perhaps where a predator decides to feast on it’s prey. 🦴 #skull #bones #skeleton #osteology #ecology #fieldwork #fieldbiology #dassie #rockyhyrax #conservation #research #fieldresearch #scicomm #science (at De Hoop Nature Reserve) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQEgeeJAA4O/?utm_medium=tumblr

Welcome to #SkullSunday! 💀 The SACRED RAM Skull Staff is probably one of my most shared images. It took me forever to complete because I would work on it intermittently while making other ritual tools. Part of that was me mulling over how I was going to adorn the skull. So right now I have a Blesbok skull staff that is in progress. That skull is partially adorned and the wood staff part is close to being complete. I really want to finish it and move on to a skull altarpiece. www.spinningcastlestudios.com https://www.instagram.com/p/B4H7PvBHPlY/?igshid=1fq9y5v2bx5lj

Welcome to #SkullSunday! 💀 Pictured is a bobcat skull altar box. I wanted to create a “headdress” on this skull as well, but this time I used green jewel beetle wings and water buffalo teeth to achieve that effect. I enjoy making skull boxes. I like to think they can be used as spell boxes or a curious addition to people’s decor. www.spinningcastlestudios.com https://www.instagram.com/p/B4H5sbhH6Ai/?igshid=in9jmec6dxa0
