I had a student bring in an Elk in a jar two years ago (I teach 4th grade and science at a small K-8 school). They had shot the mother (legally during cow season) and decided to pickle the fetus in alcohol. It looked just about the same, minus the cookie decal. I have a couple bats in formaldehyde in my room, but they aren't nearly as impressive as a pickled deer fetus!
Look what I found...

The story goes that he got mom in the head with the mirror of the car. Just clipped her. I forget if he went back for her or took her with him, intending to eat her, and kept the fetus.

I think that's pretty cool, I like animals that are preserved, I currently have a small alligator head, a piranha, a starfish, and a pufferfish... They are all freeze-dried.

Or a small Elk...
Here is present a student brought me - her family traps and I said I wanted a Bobcat skull for the classroom. For some reason I burst out laughing when she walked up to my desk and handed it to me in a ziplock bag.
I cooked it in the pressure cooker for about an hour (outside, it stunk) and the meat fell right off. I've heard people say Bobcat is edible, but I sure wouldn't want to eat it.
I'm with you Paw, anyone else have an odd thing laying around?
That's so cool DanF!
