Why aren’t the woods just chock full of bones?

404 views

When I was a kid, we used to explore the woods all the time. I came across a couple dead mice or birds in my time, but they were always recently deceased.

But tons of animals live and presumably die in the woods. Why aren’t the woods covered in deer and bear and raccoon skeletons? Where are all the bones going?

A long time ago, I had a greyhound. One time as a treat I bought him a pork neck bone. Big old thing, bigger than a softball, with a little bit of meat on it. I gave it to him in the backyard, figured he would slowly gnaw the meat off of it for a while.

Nope, 10 minutes or so later, it was all gone.

Animals have very strong jaws and animal bones are delicious and nutritious.
