Good morning everyone, so it's been one week since I've been posting the I spy photos and interactions are dwindling so I think what I'm going to do is switch it out for a once a week post for a little bit and see how that works. I will be posting on Saturday morning with a larger photo and list. Let me know what you think.

I want to thank everybody for participating today. And I'm very sorry for having to post a second time, apparently you can't add photos to an existing post here. Like I said before the internet and I... Not exactly friends lol either way, I hope you all enjoyed it and as time goes on I will hopefully make them bigger with more and more items to find. With that here the answers for today's I spy.

Good morning everyone, Steph and I have been talking and moving forward he would like me to be more active with Facebook and post more things. If anyone out there actually knows me they know that the internet and I (and let's be realistic most technology) don't exactly see eye to eye. That being said I'm really going to try this. Here's the thing though, I also have to make it fun in hopes that I can turn it into something I will love doing. Even though I do love the factual posts that we (Steph lol) would normally do is really not my thing. It takes me so much time and effort to come up with what to say or even to find something that I think is interesting that you guys would think is interesting as well so I'm not going to do that. So I've decided my posts are going to be I-SPY posts! Photos will be from our collection and or my work area with a list of of items for you to find. I'm going to start off with short easy lists just to see how the interaction is going to be. I'm planning on posting my photo and the list at 8:00 a.m. each morning then at 8:00 p.m. I will post the same photo with the answers circled. Here's hoping it works out well and I can keep up my end LOL
Happy New year to everyone and let's try and make this year a little more light hearted 🖤

Most of the time when you see flaking or very porous skulls the first thing that comes to mind is bleach, overly whitened and otherwise abused skulls.

This is a perfect example of a juvenile (immature and developing) Asian Water Buffalo (Bubalus Bubalis). Because it is so young the bone is going through rapid development and is unstable when compared to a mature adult skull that is fully developed.

This skull will be for sale paired with a mature adult which will be ready in the near future.

We don't normally post things that we haven't identified down to a species, unfortunately when it comes to this one we know what family it's in (I'm fairly certain) but we haven't narrowed it down all the way.

I'm sure if we devoted some time we could figure it out, but juggling as many projects as we do, there's not always ample time to devote to everything that deserves it.

This specimen is called a Bat star and in a few dozen years we've only seen two of them. I believe it's related to Patiria miniata, but I'm not sure. It was found off the coast of Newfoundland.

Something a little different today, a while back we got a full body of a Portuguese dogfish(shark) from a client to do a full skeleton out of, he wanted most of the skin back but we were left with a few patches like this. We were given an extra body to practice on as well!

This jar comes with a patch of Portuguese dogfish skin imbedded in the cover, this species is the deepest known living shark in our worlds oceans (up to 12,000 feet!)

This species also has very unusual skin, most shark skin is covered in tiny "denticles" which are made up of the same material as their teeth and make their skin feel like sand paper and when you grab them wrong you end up with "shark burn" which is basically like losing a few layers of skin and can feel like a sun burn.

The portuguese dogfish however has massive denticles, almost like fish scales but incredibly dense. Grabbing them wrong, especially while they are moving can result in some fairly deep lacerations if you aren't wearing gloves (learned this the hard way a few years back while releasing an adult female)

This jar with a skin cap is 75$ and the full skeleton is 2000$. Ships worldwide!

Just added a few Morpho Aega to our Etsy page, these come unmounted and unspread. If you want us to spread and frame one for you we can do that for an additional charge. These are one of the worlds most beautiful butterflies in my opinion and truly amazing to see in person. These are not what I would consider a learner butterfly but not overly difficult. https://schnaretaxidermy.etsy.com/listing/1657955834

Pretty exciting addition to our collection.

We've been working on this piece for our teaching collection for a little while now and its getting close to being done. Any guesses what it is? We will post a photo description later today or tomorrow.

Can’t wait for this little project to be done, full skeleton of a cyclops piglet. We actually have a few different variations of cyclops pigs in our collection.
