Full skeletons usually last around a month or so. (depending on conditions and appetites)

A year out, you’ll probably have a semi-concentration of slightly scattered single bones.

Additionally, rodents will gnaw bones and antlers for calcium.

-

Now, something that scavengers won’t touch, will last considerably longer.

YMMV.

Somehow I knew you’d know that.

The title said “Greater Minnesota.”

That thing you posted lives in the not-so-great part of the state.

Greetings shibumi:

I don’t recall ever seeing a full skeleton, or even a recognizable section. I always assumed that scavengers made off with the bits.

A deer was caught in a fence at our place one night. By morning, the coyotes consumed all traces, excepting the leg caught in the fence.

Cheers,
OLA

We do have a significant coyote population around here.

Thanks.

My knowledge is limited to what you can learn by poking dead things with a stick :)

Scavengers eat the fleshy bits and porcupines and squirrels make off with the bones.

A carcass could easily just “totally vanish” out in the woods forever.

Those are two of the most repulsive [non-elected] things I’ve ever seen.

Maybe when we find Bigfoot, we’ll find Obama’s birth certificate. I think he’s stolen it.

You scoff, but here in WA bigfoot gets a bit more respect. Plenty of reports come from Ft. Lewis and from Ranger units training near Mt. Rainier. The US Army Corps of Engineers included bigfoot in their WA environmental atlas. And, the USAF at Fairchild AFB provides survival school participants a map with pictures of various native animals — among them, bigfoot.

And the Minnesotans elected him to the U.S. Senate!
