Crystallizing the skull was an A+ idea, I’m really happy with how it turned out.
Especially since it happened to be full of spiders, because my city girl brain never once thought that was a possibility until I put it into the water and 1 mama and 100 baby brown recluse spiders erupted out of it =DDD.

This is COOL AS SHIT

The spiders less so.

Wow! Have you ever seen an alien skull?! Just kidding! This unusual specimen is a real Dugong skull in the teaching collection of the University of Toronto!

Dugongs are marine mammals found in the Indo-West Pacific. They feed primarily on seagrass and thus are restricted to coastal environments.

They are listed as Vulnerable by CITES as their population is at risk from fishing-related activities, hunting, and habitat destruction, coupled with a low rate of reproduction.
