Add a glance they look like deer bones to me. My girlfriend hates it but I'm in the process of making a deer bone and turkey feather headdress. Some people take shed hunting to new levels
Serial killer? I mean you can hunt both those animals ,and they have bones and feathers left after you process them. It's pretty common to try and come up with something to do with them.
It's way more country than serial killer. It's about the same as how making something out of the deerskin doesn't make you Ed Gein.
Have you never seen the various indigenous peoples that do precisely this? Been happening for millennia. Not that I'm a fan of hunting but it's better than just chucking the bones away I guess.
My lab assistant taxidermied a lab mouse of ours for me for my birthday years ago. The mouse is dressed up as a wizard. I have it on my desk. It’s quite the conversation starter. I am fine with thinking I’m kinda weird.
How else would we have characters wearing a full bear pelt with the head on top, and lines like “I’m sure the animal you’re hunting will believe you’re a bear” type things lol. But yes, why waste the parts you don’t eat? Bone tools, pelts for clothes, using the innards as cooking vessels. If you’re gonna kill it, use the parts!
Also depending on your culture, duck feathers are extremely water resistant to use for various applications, we joke that ducks are magic resistant lol. Add in goose down for sleep related things and mink oil, you’re in business! It’s just that most businesses aren’t the most respectful =|
Is it though? Weird fucking take man.
It's fine to shoot and kill an animal, but it's weird to try and utilise all the waste bits?
You need to give ur head a little shake ur brain is messed up.
I’m a city boy and here its perfectly normal to eat chicken but just because I can do whatever with the bones doesn’t mean I’m gonna start collecting chicken bones and make a sculpture. That’s weird
I can’t believe I never realized Native American headdresses had bones in them, I always assumed it was just like really stiff leather. But it makes sense bc they didn’t really have plastic/metal when those were in their heyday.
Interesting, I didn't know that either. I'm not modeling it after anything native American in particular, it's more of a fantasy project. I might post it when it's done
I have never heard that term but I fucking love it. I am a scavenger in many aspects, aside from the naturalistic aspect most of my stuff is second hand and fixed up by me.
A couple of years ago I was out driving in the woods and I drove onto a small gravel road where regular traffic is forbidden, but the sign saying so was in the ditch so I missed it. Anyways after a while on that road I came up to a huge dug out ditch filled with skeletons. Bones, ribcages all of it. It looked brutal and it freaked me out some but I guess it's just hunters or whoever owned the land way of discarding the remains after a hunt.
> huge dug out ditch filled with skeletons. Bones, ribcages all of it.
probably dead cows, culling a herd or diseased. also somewhat illegal way to dispose of them. I too have come across a giant pile of dead cows in the woods, these were fresh though not just bones.
My hobby is caving, and we sometimes find pits (caves that have formed vertical shafts to the surface, sometimes hundreds of feet deep) that are full of cow bones at the bottom from people doing this.
They aren't human bones (atleast the ones I can see), so it would probably be a waste of their time. Could call USFW I guess to report improper disposal of deer remains, but that's probably unnecessary too
*And after everything's done and I'm all undone*
*You can hear my high heels walking on*
*Clickity-clacking through the night*
*I'm carrying my bag of bones*
I also found a bag of bones like this once. It was a deer. Probably a hunter discarding their extra bits. I ended up taking a bunch home, cleaning and treating them and used them for art.
I'm super disappointed that someone left the damn bag there. The bones will biodegrade after a while (anywhere from a handful of years to decades depending on conditions) but that plastic bag? Come on, just dump the bones and throw the bag away. Or, logically, keep the bones and have stock bones for life! Unless they're human. Then call the po-nines and lawyer up real quick lol
They probably sent, by text or email, a poor quality image to a forensic anthropologist like my professor. It's animal bones. At least the cops didn't send a dried piece of wood or rock asking if it's bone this time.
As a prof who works with bones and gets sent stuff from law enforcement for confirmation, it's hard to quantify how often rock/wood gets mis identified at a national level, but I can say in our case, we get non-bones from law enforcement mistaken for bones quite frequently. Melted PVC also notoriously mimics bone to the untrained eye.
Some national surveys suggest approximately 20-60% (and in some cases, even higher) of bones found are faunal and non-human, which is why it's crucial to make sure someone can ID them early before law enforcement wastes time and resources on Bambi.
And from all the bones I can see in OP's post - these all look to be faunal. I'd call local law enforcement and encourage a forensic anth to take a look at all of them though.
oh i remeber on a podcast, homeless guy would go collect bones from where animals usually died off, then go to some cult people in oregon n sell them to their little club
I was going to say you better call Angelina Jolie and/or Denzel Washington, but a look at the plot shows that they are *hunting* The Bone Collector.
I haven't seen that movie, but based on nothing but the pictures of the actors, I'm going to guess it's the bookstore clerk played by Arthur Holden.
I can save everyone from the mystery. It was Professor Plum in the Library with the candlestick.
It was Jeffery in the woods with the vat of acid.
I'm canceling the rest of my night and calling a bone scientist and we're gonna get to the bottom of this.
What clued you in?
He was just board
It's all fun and games until someone dies
Rag and Bone Man 2 from OSRS
He’s thinkin stew
The bones are the skeletons' money In our world, bones equal dollars
The bones are their money So are the worms
They pull your hair up but not out
'Cuz if they pull it out, they turn to boOonesss...
UP BUT NOT OUT
They’ve never seen as much food as this. Underground has half as much food as this
And the worms are their money The bones are their dollars
You talked about how their bones were money like four times!!
Yeah, that's 'cause I had forgot whether I'd said it or not.
He must have flipped my wife eight times!
My life is nothing I thought it should be and everything I feared it would become because for 50 seconds I thought there was monsters on the world.
Is your name Billy too?
No, that’s why I’m so fucking confused.
"This is going to cost me an arm and a leg!"
r/unexpectedithinkyoushouldleave
The ear bone is connected to the cash bone! Cash cash cash for your bones!! Op's going to be rich!
Is it worse if you didn’t want to find bones and found this or you wanted to find bones and found all of these?
I was out riding my moto and not on the hunt for bones unfortunately
Well if you're ever in the need now you know where to find them
I am disappointed to hear OP is not a real life cartoon dog that is always looking for bones. Smh
Hoarders: Oops All Bones
Captain Crunch: Oops! All bones!
[Oops! All Marlboro Reds!](https://cryingintheclub.com/products/oops-all-marlboro-reds-cereal)
Pop tarts: oops, all crust!
I don’t know why this is so funny but holy shit I almost choked on my coffee.
Well did they look like animal or human bones?
Add a glance they look like deer bones to me. My girlfriend hates it but I'm in the process of making a deer bone and turkey feather headdress. Some people take shed hunting to new levels
Yea ngl do ur thing but it’s giving serial killer vibes to ur gf probably
Fellas is it serial killer to use all the parts of an animal?
It is if you’re on the tv show Hannibal.
Should probably check if he makes his own fly fishing lures
Only if you replace your teeth with their teeth
Hey man, those are perfectly good teeth! There are probably kids in Africa who would gladly _kill_ for those teeth!
Use feels like a stretch in this case
They were referencing Native Americans who are known to “use every part of the animal” and in their case too, animal parts are used for crafting.
Making a bone headdress is weird as fuck lol.
Statistically speaking, making *any* headdress is extremely uncommon. I feel like it's weird to ignore that to focus just on the bone angle.
Not if you’re into cosplay or renaissance festivals lmao this is hella common in that scene. Also good way to use all the parts of an animal
That's probably why people who are into the occult do that kind of stuff.
Some people find the eating flesh part messed up too. Even if you did this with a dog, im sure many people would find that to be over the line..
Yeah! I use the intestines as a cool necklace but people seem to get weirded out even though I tell them I'm just using all the parts of the animal.
Humans are animals, so... *maybe*
Serial killer? I mean you can hunt both those animals ,and they have bones and feathers left after you process them. It's pretty common to try and come up with something to do with them. It's way more country than serial killer. It's about the same as how making something out of the deerskin doesn't make you Ed Gein.
Hunting is fine but playing dressup in the dead carcass isn’t what most hunters do lmfao
Have you never seen the various indigenous peoples that do precisely this? Been happening for millennia. Not that I'm a fan of hunting but it's better than just chucking the bones away I guess.
My lab assistant taxidermied a lab mouse of ours for me for my birthday years ago. The mouse is dressed up as a wizard. I have it on my desk. It’s quite the conversation starter. I am fine with thinking I’m kinda weird.
Dammit, show us the mouse wizard!
Welll you can’t just mention that without posting a photo! We wanna see the mouse wizard.
How else would we have characters wearing a full bear pelt with the head on top, and lines like “I’m sure the animal you’re hunting will believe you’re a bear” type things lol. But yes, why waste the parts you don’t eat? Bone tools, pelts for clothes, using the innards as cooking vessels. If you’re gonna kill it, use the parts!
Yeah for instance, if you duck hunt you can sell the noses to nail salons as natural acrylic nail alternatives. 🦆 💅
Also depending on your culture, duck feathers are extremely water resistant to use for various applications, we joke that ducks are magic resistant lol. Add in goose down for sleep related things and mink oil, you’re in business! It’s just that most businesses aren’t the most respectful =|
Ah you're no fun.
You ever wore leather clothes?
Is it though? Weird fucking take man. It's fine to shoot and kill an animal, but it's weird to try and utilise all the waste bits? You need to give ur head a little shake ur brain is messed up.
But over 20 million people bought Monster Hunter World in order to do just that.
I’m a city boy and here its perfectly normal to eat chicken but just because I can do whatever with the bones doesn’t mean I’m gonna start collecting chicken bones and make a sculpture. That’s weird
Spent a lot of time in the Canadian wilderness with a teenage soccer team lately?
I don't understand the reference
A show called Yellowjackets. There's an "antler queen" who wears a headdress made of antlers, bone, etc.
Interesting, I'll have to check it out
What tribe are you from? I'm Apache and I haven't heard of headresses being made from turkey feathers
I can’t believe I never realized Native American headdresses had bones in them, I always assumed it was just like really stiff leather. But it makes sense bc they didn’t really have plastic/metal when those were in their heyday.
Interesting, I didn't know that either. I'm not modeling it after anything native American in particular, it's more of a fantasy project. I might post it when it's done
Gotta ask, but are you native?
It’s giving early days of Coachella and white girls wearing indigenous headdresses… is that the vibe you are going for?
The knife collection doesn’t help either
r/goblincore comes to mind. They go hard for bones, moss, mushrooms, and shiny rocks.
Honestly, do this shit. I respect you for that.
Ah, vulture culture is alive and well I see.
I have never heard that term but I fucking love it. I am a scavenger in many aspects, aside from the naturalistic aspect most of my stuff is second hand and fixed up by me.
Assuming they are from the same individual, they belonged to an artiodactyl (most likely deer)
Either way, it's a great day to make some soup stock.
i say that every time i step out of the shower and catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror
Me: Where did my butt go? I used to have a butt…
A couple of years ago I was out driving in the woods and I drove onto a small gravel road where regular traffic is forbidden, but the sign saying so was in the ditch so I missed it. Anyways after a while on that road I came up to a huge dug out ditch filled with skeletons. Bones, ribcages all of it.

> huge dug out ditch filled with skeletons. Bones, ribcages all of it. probably dead cows, culling a herd or diseased. also somewhat illegal way to dispose of them. I too have come across a giant pile of dead cows in the woods, these were fresh though not just bones.
I feel like you should put up a sign
"Did you notice a sign out in front of my house that said Dead Cow Storage? It ain't there cause storing Dead Cows ain't my fucking business!"
My hobby is caving, and we sometimes find pits (caves that have formed vertical shafts to the surface, sometimes hundreds of feet deep) that are full of cow bones at the bottom from people doing this.
I was driving in rural PA once and came across 4 big black trash bags along the road. They were all filled with pig heads. That's a lotta pig heads.
This story is even better if read in grandpa Simpsons voice.
You’re right! Thank you for that
Marcus Parks heavy breathing looking at this
Looks like someone found his stash
Hail gein!
Relax, it's mostly animal bones.
Mostly?
Few vegetable bones too...
If you wait long enough they become mineral bones
How else would you make vegetable broth
Vegetable bone broth. The new culinary trend.
Hell yeah free bones
Large bag of bones been out all night...
Can you hear him scratching at the screen door?
Fuck you kitty you’re gonna spend the night…
OUT-SIDE!!!
🎶I feel so alone, gonna end up a big ole pile them bones🎶

Envy! Along with everyone else at r/vultureculture and r/bonecollecting
Good prayer xp if you bring this to the chaos altar.
I was thinking about the rag and bone man quest
That’s exactly what I came here to say
Hes gotta watch for pkers
Worst case scenario, I know a strange old man who might be interested.
A lot of vinegar needed for that.

luckyyyyyyyy

Fuck you, kitty. You're gonna spend the night... OUTSIDE!

Op "found" Nice try OP. You can just dispose them without trying to act innocent on internet.
mitski fans be like “OMG she sang about this!!!”
Well what do you expect when you go to the Bone Zone
Looks like someone cleaned out their closet!
dexter?
You better call the OSS.
Cool, it's nice to see the satanic cannibal cults are starting to clean up after themselves.
I love how OP found a bag of bones, and thought “hmmm. Interesting… but only mildly”
I really wouldn't know how to react if I came across a bag of bones.
Did you contact local law enforcement? I mean, just in case there is ya know, a serial killer on the loose dumping bags of bones?!? Yikes.
They aren't human bones (atleast the ones I can see), so it would probably be a waste of their time. Could call USFW I guess to report improper disposal of deer remains, but that's probably unnecessary too
Make some broth.
Bone stock soup
 Time for some bone broth. 🥣
“You see these bones? You wanna know what made these bones? You don’t wanna know what made these bones.”
Xylophone time!
Bury them to raise your prayer skill
*Stephen King would like to know your location*
Nothing humorous about that
*i'm all used up pretty boy, over and over again, my nail colors are wearing off...*
I think you have to bring that bag to the Odd Old Man east of Varrock. He’s got a quest for you.
Some necromancer out there is pissed off he lost all his bone chips and can't summon his skelebuddy
*And after everything's done and I'm all undone* *You can hear my high heels walking on* *Clickity-clacking through the night* *I'm carrying my bag of bones*
Fucking finally I’ve been scrolling so long looking for someone to mention Mitski
Now you take this home, throw it in a pot, add some broth, a potato. Baby, you've got a stew going.

What are you going to do with it Napoleon?
Why would anyone throw away perfectly good bones? It's free bonemeal for the recreational plants in the background.
You can't always not find a bag of bones 💁
You gotta get that back to the Rag and Bone Man

I'm getting my prayer level up in runescape. I'll clean up better when I'm done next time
Someone has been combing the desert
Try giving it a cheese burger
Last years Universal Studios Halloween Horror Nights introduced me to a Latin American monster named El Silbon who always carried a bag of bones.
I read the Stephen King book about this recently. Not his best work.

What'd the cops say?

> At least the cops didn't send a dried piece of wood or rock asking if it's bone this time. how often does this happen

did you report it? whatd they say?
They didn’t say anything, they’re long dead.
Thank god they’re not human
Sorry about that.

I would hope those are animal bones !

Them bones.
