I really liked the Grévy zebra from the Africa hall at the museum in Bern, he had such a sweet face. The zebra and the eland antelope were made sometime between 1944 and 1947 and they have some age-related damage (like the cracks in the zebra's skin on the flank and neck), but they still look very good!

Hey, have a vulture culture question.
I have a small animal body that i want to breakdown in its entirety. I was thinking of a rot pot, but im not sure the best way to break down the bones.
Also, in theory, if i were to grow plants with that soil would they be edible? Or does breaking down a body cause toxicity issues.
Any advice would be helpful!
It's honestly been so long since I've used rot pots and I need to update the original post ;o;!
Short version, they work well if you need a low-no smell method. If you have a way to macerate the bones I would recommend that over a rot pot depending on the size of the animal. Rot pots are better for medium to large size animals, and I only use them for things that are like, really nasty roadkill that I can only salvage the bones from.
The nitrate released in the soil is good for certain plants but it would still need to be mixed with a bit of fresh soil to use it for growing anything. You either need to grow plants that like lot of nitrate, or use the rot pot dirt as extra fertilizer mixed in with the soil!

Because polls get the most engagement I’m making a poll lol
(For the sake of this poll: a collector is anyone who *currently has* a collection of things either physically or digitally that they intentionally acquired which can be grouped together)
Please please please please pleeeeeeeaaaaaaase tell me what you collect and optionally why!!!! (This is doubly true if your collection is related to a regulatory/“special” interest!!!!!!! That’s honestly the only reason I’m making this poll, I am begging youuuuuuuuuuu
Neurodivergent related tags are for reach as I know a lot of neurodiverse people are collectors. I do try my best not to clutter those tags, if anyone has an issue with it please tell me and I’ll remove them
