For reference, this is what the big box of frass looks like. I found several half-centimetre echidna finger bones in this when I sifted it so finding those bat carpels (<1mm) by hand is still a rush
A photo of a shallow cardboard box containing an irregular spread of debris produced by dermestid beetles. In some places it is 0.5cm deep, and made up of beetle exoskeletons from shedding, frass (big poop which is like a dry, gritty but light dirt) and secret hidden bones that the beetles have moved away from the larger bones they were cleaning

She had a lovely day of bothering him for kisses
A photo of two rabbits snuggling. The one on the left is white and fluffy with pink eyes and a broad nose, his head is resting on the floor and his ears are flat back in relaxation. The one on the right is black, and her nose is pushed into the white rabbit's neck fluff. She is observing the camera with a slightly deranged side-eye

It's her birthday
A photo of a black rex rabbit, lounging majestically on the end of a bed with one back leg extended behind her. Her ears are set back in a relaxed manner, slightly turned towards the camera in case of interesting sounds. Her brown eyes are lidded sleepily and her tiny front paws peek out from her stocky body. She is perfect

THERE HE BE

MY BELOVED SON

IM CRYING
A screenshot from the Prehistoric Planet trailer, showing a powerfully-built mammal leaping down from some gum trees. It is ginger with black stripes down its back like a thylacine, a wombat-like face and long, muscular koala-like arms and hands ending in huge claws. I love it and want to hold it and be murdered by it

God I love rexes they're such normal looking animals
A photo of a black rabbit, staring directly at the camera. She is soft and velvety, with some flyaway fluffy off her side, and she appears to be made entirely of flabby lumps. She is mostly spherical, her front feet set widely with rolls of skin over her elbows, giving her the appearance of cleavage in the middle. Her head is proportionally tiny and her ears are set back. She is a strange looking creature

She is trying so hard ;-;
A photo of two rabbits resting. The one on the left is white and fluffy with a round face and pink eyes. The one on the right is black and velvety and is pushing herself into the white rabbit's shoulder and side, begging for affection A photo of two rabbits, both sleeping with their eyes slightly open. The one on the left is white, fluffy and sleeping like a little orb, and the one on the right is black and velvety, with her long nose pushed into the white rabbit's chest

QRP with your skull #art

It's impossible to photograph in a way that really shows it off, but I'll never not be proud of my beauchene rabbit skull c':
A photo of a small glass display cube with a rabbit skull suspended inside, surrounded decoratively with plants. The skull has been articulated in a way that holds each of the separate bones of the skull apart A photo from above of the rabbit skull from the first picture, showing the separated bones of the cranium. They are held in place with a network of small wires A photo from above of the rabbit skull from the first picture, showing the separated bones of the cranium. They are held in place with a network of small wires. This photo gives a better look at the bones of the braincase, including the interparietal bone which is fused in hares but not in rabbits (lagomorph skull ID hack) A photo from the side of the rabbit skull from the first picture, showing the separated bones of the cranium and jaw. They are held in place with a network of small wires, the nasal bones floating slightly above the rest of the cranium and the mandible suspended in two halves below. The brain case is made up of a truly unnecessary number of separate little bones

Aha, found where I originally posted this to twitter, nice
A digital picture of the angel design from the shirt in the previous picture. It is made up of a circle of wings and eyes on a grey background with the word 'ineffable' in the middle over a hazy circle in an ace flag colour gradient. The wings on the left are dark grey to black and the eyes are orange with vertical pupils, and the wings on the right are beige and the eyes are blue with horizontal pupils. The pale wings have slightly darker bars at the edges of the coverts and freckles on the shoulders, with the flight feathers and the undersides of the wings lighter and darker tips to the flight feathers. The dark wings are lighter on the underside with dark tips to the flight feathers and have a gradient of green-purple along the shoulder reminiscent of the colouring of a pigeon's neck (the wings are all pigeon wings). The wings are mirrored and in various flapping poses

I'm enjoying how this paint-over of my old Good Omens shirt is going C:
A grey shirt featuring a design of circle of wings and eyes with the word 'ineffable' in the middle. The wings on the left are dark and the eyes are orange with vertical pupils, and the wings on the right are light and the eyes are blue with horizontal pupils. The pale wings have slightly darker bars at the edges of the coverts and the dark ones have a gradient of green-purple along the shoulder reminiscent of the colouring of a pigeon's neck (the wings are all pigeon wings). The wings are mirrored and in various flapping poses. A gold outline has been painted around all but the bottom left wing to increase the contrast of the design from the fabric

I love to identify with this small bird whose brain is basically smoking as it tries to work out that eating the mouse I put in its mouth is a good idea

Meanwhile, my beautiful son, Luigi Bungione (because he is a bun, not a man)
A 3/4 profile photo of a fluffy white rabbit from the chest up. He is sitting up very straight and looking at the camera out of one eye, his pupil huge. He has a little pink mouth and overall his expression looks surprised and mildly alarmed

I have been obsessed with this bone for a couple of years since someone posted in a bone group I'm in that they'd found it by the side of a railway track. It's a rabbit humerus, but one which has been shot and has completely healed

I may have the roni but I also have...this cool bone

#osteology #vetmed
A rabbit humerus from the lateral aspect, a small metal pellet lodged in just below the humeral head. The bone around the pellet (shot? bullet?) has remodelled cleanly and has no evidence of fracture or infection. The humerus is being held in a hand and is just over 5cm long A rabbit humerus from the caudal aspect, a small metal pellet lodged in just below the humeral head. The medial tuberosity of the bone is weirdly remodelled but has no obvious lysis and there are no signs of fracture. The humerus is being held in a hand and is just over 5cm long

Got my first tattoo today! It's of some early sketches of the rabbits from Watership Down's prologue, by Luciana Arrighi. I think the link to them was posted a while back by @cinefeline.bsky.social and they haven't left my mind since. More here: site.douban.com/209082/widge...
A freshly tattooed forearm. The tattoo is of fine linework of three rabbits, very loosely drawn and endearingly wonky. All of them have little smiles and mismatched eyes and ears and feel like they were a quick scribble of the idea of a rabbit

I'm an exotics vet, also I make party hats for my patients if they come in on their birthdays (not sure why you want to talk to a vet but I figured you might appreciate a little old rabbit picture)

A selfie of a white human with blue hair, wearing a hat and glasses and holding a velvety black rabbit on their lap. They are in a car but nothing interesting can be seen out the window behind them, just a white, cloudy sky
