Does anyone have any good tips on how to find bones? I live in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by forests and plenty of wild animals, yet I rarely find any remains. I have a small collection that I'd love to expand, but it takes quite a long time. Are there any universal spots in forests (such as clearings, deeper woods, etc.) where you're almost guaranteed to find bones?
I've got a large bone for ya

>>2874788I almost tripped over this a few weeks ago. Idk, just wanter around I guess.
>>2874788Don't look now, but there's a skeleton INSIDE YOU.
>>2874788Low areas.Injured animals take the path of least resistance. Theyll follow a stream bed before they climb a hill.Areas with shelter. Like an embankment or stand of trees where they decide to rest in the shade then never get up.Hollow or corner where a predator can safely eat its kill and only focus on being attacked from one direction.Turns on streams where a carcass would get hung up after being carried down a straight portion of flood waters.
>>2874788I thought this was about hunting with a bone as a bludgeoning weapon, to LARP as a caveman
I have found various bones and skulls before, i havent set out to find them purposefully but of I did I would research which local species have cool skulls then go on inaturalist and look for sightings, habitat regions and seasonality and go from there
>>2874788I walked a considerable distance to look for bones. I wouldn't know how to guarantee finding them, but covering large areas increases your chances.
Tie some chicken wings to a few bones and teach your dog to find them. Same strategy as deer sheds.
>>2874788You Fool, your local burial site would have lots of it. How did you not think about it.
