animal skulls
Beasts' head bones
Animal skulls are the bony head structures of non-human creatures, typically cleaned of flesh and preserved.
They serve as specimens for scientific study, hunting trophies, decorative objects, or artistic materials.
Collectors prize skulls from predators, horned animals, and unusual species: She found an animal skull in the woods.
The phrase often evokes rustic or gothic aesthetics.
