Anne Elliott's photos with the keyword: jaw bone

For some strange reason, the descriptions for the last four photos completely disappeared!! Annoying. Anyway, this is the innerside of the lower jaw of a Deer (that I had incorrectly ID'd as a Coyote jaw), seen at the Highwood Ranch on Saturday. The owners of the Ranch leave everything on their property where it's found. That way, too, anyone who is lucky enough to visit gets to see these interesting finds. Also, a jaw bone like this one is a valuable source of calcium to other creatures that might take a few nibbles : ). We had such an enjoyable time walking on this land, and they even have their own two Great Horned Owlets, LOL. Lots of interesting plants, too.

Saw this jaw bone with huge teeth when I was on a walk with a friend in Griffith Woods a couple of afternoons ago. No idea what animal it belongs to, but it was obviously a large animal. Thanks, D, for giving me this chance to take such an inspiring, photogenic photo, LOL! No idea why I find jaw bones and teeth so interesting to photograph!
