A slightly old picture of my skull collection, with other things in it.
Big skull in the back is a wolf. Then from left to right there's a coyote, an american porcupine, a bobcat, a nile crocodile, and an alligator. The dark skull on the bottom left is some unknown little carnivore.
Other things in the photo are a trilobite fossil in the bottom left, african porcupine quills behind the wolf, rabbit pelt, morpho butterfly in the shadow box, and a fiddler crab preserved in lucite.
Since this photo was taken, I have acquired a sunset moth in a shadow box, a baby shark in a bottle, a cougar skull, and a human skull.
My boyfriend and I are working on cleaning a deer head that we took from roadkill, he'll get the skull and I'll get the ears.
Edit: Also since this has been posted I've acquired a taxidermy armadillo, a cow skull, and a huge heavy ram skull

RACCOON! Durp, totally forgot to look that up when I was trying to research what it was.
I've been collecting them for a while, I got quite a few things from a store in Berkeley, CA called the Bone Room (guess what they sell), I bought the wolf and bobcat from a private seller, the cougar skull is from someone on the FHB community, the crocodile was from my boyfriend (he owed me money, and I accepted the skull as adequate payment :P ) the morpho butterfly and the shark in a bottle are from a friend, and the trilobite I actually got at a flea market, and yup they've been extinct for about 250 million years. The human skull was one my dad picked up when he was in medical school, and he promised it to me when he retires, and he just retired, woohoo!

You can find all sorts of ridiculously cool things like that at flea markets. I'm actually in Denmark right now with my boyfriend, and we were at a flea market a few weeks ago and I found a taxidermy full alligator. I sadly didn't buy it because they were closing up, and there's no way i could have fit that in my bag (also i had no idea what the customs restrictions on that would be), but it was terribly cool, you should definitely check them out.
About the teeth, the croc's teeth are stupidly sharp, I've poked myself on them many a time D:
If I think about ghosts and stuff like that for a long period of time, I get kinda freaked out, so I just don't think about it :P

people on FHB do seem to buy the fur hats and collars that people find from ebay and whatnot, you could probably make profit from cheap ones from thrift stores :P
I'm lucky that my boyfriend's family is also pretty chill with the bones and whatnot, his dad collects skulls he finds around, and currently while we're in Denmark we're storing our deer head in his mum's freezer

i'm actually working on articulating a wolf skeleton right now, well i'm still in the process of cleaning the bugger, but once that's done the articulation will start. (That reminds me I should start work on my cat skeleton too that's already cleaned, oh god so much to do!) But I'll get pictures up of that bad boy as well once he's done :3
