Hello! This is a very good question, and a very broad one too! This response will be a lot of links but please let me know if you have any specific questions not answered here and I will be happy to help out more!
Here are a few good ‘cover alls’ for bone collecting:
A lot of stuff depends on your location (mainly weather and laws) and also your access to supplies and what sort of animals you get. A good thing to bear in mind is that patience is a MASSIVE thing too. Part of the reason I am so terrible at processing is because I have no patience!
AS A SUMMARY: my personal method is to find a dead, skin it, gut it as much as possible, bury/macerate (I often combine the two and i call it The Swamp Method) then degrease with fairy liquid- always brand name, and then whiten with 12% peroxide. I hope these links cover all you wanted to know and I am super happy to answer anymore questions you have! Just to finish off, here is a big list of all my fav vulture blogs that come to mind. There are more out there but these guys are definitely worth a follow if you want more vulture content and more processing insight!
The pressure’s rising I won’t make it through tonight This love immortal is an assassin’s delight Just blow me up or run me down or cut my throat And when it’s time for you to die…
