LOL........... the chupacabra I believe is a mexican myth similar to bigfoot.  At least that's what they said on the Scooby Doo episode all about it.   ;D

Oh, and I just looked at that site again.  They have both natural and replicated skulls.

Ummm, just curious, what on earth would you DO with one of those?  I mean, what is the purpose of selling breed-specific skulls?  How bizarre.....

I love Scooby Doo - the old school ones before Scrappy.  I don't know - I think it s still cool.  But I like that stuff!!!  I took an osteology class and our end project was we had to piece together a skeleton (real bones)  found on some dig and tell whether it was male/female, what race, and any signs of trauma or chronic disease.  It was cool.

I think what would be creepy is if they stole dogs and killed them for the bones.  They probably buy the carcasses from animal control places, maybe from places that are still using animals for testing, or donated from private sources.

Ya know the people that have the cow skulls attached to their walls?  Why not with a dog skull..... I know super sick and demented.  I couldn't bring myself to do such things, I've often wondered why people stuck the cow skulls on the walls too.  My mom has one and it gives me the creeps!

I hate that cow skull thing.

My dad is a total mountain man / trapper guy - a real good ole' boy.  H has deer heads and other animal pelts he has trapped hanging on his wall. - It is totally creepy

Actually, I looked quite a bit more at this website.  You would not believe how many specimens of species they have.  I find it fascinating.

Anyway, back to the point.  Most of these are for sale to museums or schools.  It says so on most of their other pages, you can buy either museum quality (the best) or school quality (still good but cheaper).  I would love to buy some of the more unique specimens.  Anteater skull anyone?

I can understand why they would sell replicas for training vets and such... but the fact that they sell real skulls deffinately creeps me out
