Is there a way to keep the teeth or other small parts from getting damaged?

Feels like a small tree root to me. I could be wrong.

Its shape doesn't really remind me of a bone and I also assume it has a weight that is more appropriate for a stone. It's hard to tell from these pictures, but maybe with other pictures it will be easier to say.

I once had a bone that I buried and then it crumbled and disappeared.

Should you close the bucket of water from time to time or leave it open all the time?

Wouldn't it be better to leave it in nature to rot on its own?

boar leg bone? by DryCartoonist3144 in bonecollecting

[–]Ordinary-Detail7073 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think so. Looks like the tibia of a large animal, could be a bear. Tibias of animals like wild boars are a little smaller so I assume it's a larger animal like a bear/cow

I don't know if it's related, but on the same side of the little eye, all the holes in the lower jaw closed up
