More of my window skulls... The one on the far left is an elderly guinea pig, the next one is a baby rabbit, and the little sharp-toothed critters off on the right, are weasels. I've not been able to find if they're from long-tailed, short-tailed, or least weasels which has been rather disappointing. :hmm:

All these skulls were harvested from bodies of animals that were already dead. I did not kill any of these animals.

Feel free to use as stock, just please credit me and link back to my picture. Also, if you could please comment with a link to your finished piece, that would be much appreciated. :)

Nice collection! The weasel skulls aren't least weasels, I know for sure. I took the skull of a least weasel my cat killed and I have it now, but they look like long/ short tailed weasel skulls.

Oh, wow! Thanks for the info. Do you have the measurements of the skull and possibly some pics of it that I could see? :meow:

I could definitely send you a photo with the skull compared to maybe a quarter. It's really about half the size of my thumb. Would you like multiple angles/ jaw open and closed? or even compared to an otter or skunk skull? Whatever you want :)

Multiple angles and comparison pics sound awesome! I'm really curious about its size and shape! :D

I just pulled my weasel skulls out of bleach yesterday, skinning is always the best part though. The varieties of weasels are the same so its pretty irrelevant what type of weasel that they are.

Awesome. I thought of using the bones of my previous pets for a collection, but honestly I'd think it'd be pretty weird having known them personally...
