I found this dead male chihuahua on the roadside near a vet clinic in Mexico. What is the best way to rot down the body? Should I bury it?
I want to preserve his skull but I think it broke.
Also, general roadkill thread.
Halp guys. My room smells like dead dog.

Throw it in the garbage. Why did you even pick it up? You can buy dog skulls if you really wanted one.

I really hope they build that fucking wall.

Shit.
Ok.
You think maybe someone is missing their dog, op? Maybe try to find the owner before you keep its skull.
But if you ever want to clean a roadkill skull... Cutting the head off and taking off as much meat as possible will get it clean quicker. You can:
>put it in a slow cooker with water on low heat, don't boil.
This process takes hours or days and will be gross and soggy. But it works.
>buy dermestid beetles
This is the best way to clean bones. The beetles clean the meat off quick and efficiently. They are cheap to buy.
If you're too squeamish you can usually find a taxidermist with beetles and pay them to have it cleaned.

Thank you, anon. But I think I'm just gonna ask for the owner. It had a collar but not a tag.
