I'd bet PITA, PUTA, whatever they're called would have a fit but I sure would like some old whalebone scales with a bit of scrimshaw on them! Now you've got me thinking... I wonder if the humane society or forestry service or zoo would consider tossing some ole' bones my way now and then? I looked briefly but couldn't find a thread about getting discarded moose or other wild animal bones from some organization that has to dispose of them. I don't need much, maybe a rib or two? Any of you guys ever try to make scales with bones or horn from roadkill? I've read quite a few bits from people that use roadkill for material to use in tying fishing flies. Not sure I'd go with real roadkill, but a rib or two from the forestry service might be good...
