Description I am SOOOOO EXCITED!!!! Over the weekend I FINALLY got one of my grail skulls in the mail—a spotted hyena! She was legally obtained by Steve from FrozenCritters.net, and I couldn’t be happier with her. She’s in such gorgeous condition, too; some pre- and post-mortem tooth damage, but nothing too bad, and a beautiful natural patina, too.

So here—have some hyena skull reference pics at bit.ly/1pWe47u . You’re welcome to use them for drawing/etc., just give me credit and let me see what awesomeness you created.

Oh well... such is the life of a collector. Dirt poor, but happy as a fool.

It looks very doggy.

Oddly enough, they're feliform, not caniform, carnivores.

*Squeeee!*

Feliform! Someone actually used that word!


Frankly I think cat skulls look very canine. It's possum skulls I see as catty now.

How hard is it to obtain Hyena bits?

lupagreenwolf In reply to RiversOblivion [2014-08-05 23:50:34 +0000 UTC]

Pretty damned hard, actually. I've only seen a handful for sale in the almost twenty years I've been doing this.

RiversOblivion In reply to lupagreenwolf [2014-08-06 01:01:48 +0000 UTC]

I can imagine that they're probably hard to get and import, legally.

Yeah, but Steve at FrozenCritters.net is really good at getting things legally.

Frozencritters is one of my favorite people to buy from. I didn't even know they had a hyena skull.
Congratulations! I also hope to obtain one myself.
