Dead Seal! (Warning: grossness)

[sorraia]

The skull was gone, or I would have snatched it. However, you should know, that it's hiiiighly illegal to posses california native wildlife parts. Just not ethically, in this case. It's a fine, fine line, and a person just has to use their conscience...So...yeah. lol. I love skulls, too. Check out Etsy.com, and do a search for various skulls. You can find some good deals.

Possessing any parts of marine mammals is a federal offense, so don't go collecting any bones or skulls of seals or whales.

I thought the bird looked kind of albatrossy.

I'm fascinated by how bodies work and skeletons and how they articulate.

So true! And the majority of birds are protected as well, even possessing feathers is illegal (MBTA).

UNLESS you have a permit!
