Animal Post-Cranial Bones

Genuine Animal Bones - Here is where you will find the bones below the skull. From atlas to whole fleshless feet, our selection of bones of animals found around the world. Perfect for any artist's grab bag or to show anatomical comparison between species to students, we hope you'll find your fancy in this section.

Bacula

One of our most frequently asked questions here at The Bone Room is: What is a bacula? A baculum (the singular form, latin for "stick") is a bone found in the penis of most mammals. And no, we don't have one. Humans are one of the few mammals that lack this bone. These dense bones are uniquely shaped for each species and often aid in the classification of otherwise similar species.

Vertebrae

Vertebrae are perfect for jewelry use - they combine sculptural form with convenience - just string them up and wear them. Because of natural variation, all vertebrae sizes are approximate. Measurements are of the vertebral body. Most animals have at least three different kinds of vertebrae, so shape will vary with position. Sorry, but we cannot fill requests for specific or sequential vertebrae.

Tail Bones

We now offer tail bones as single caudal vertebrae and full tail sets. The single vertebras range in size depending upon what part of the tail it is from. The full tail sets usually come in 3 sections of 5 or 6 vertebrae held together by connective tissue. Sizes may vary as specimens vary.
