    Have you read the road kill sporran thread? You have access to A LOT of animals if you live anywhere near a highway!

    I was actually contemplating finding the SPCA or something and looking through the animals they put down, then I decided that may be crossing some sort of line... a Siberian husky would look cool, though...

    Haha, they were actually fairly lean. They cleaned it up before they got blisters and chemical burns, but you could still feel how their fingers felt all soapy, even after they cleaned off the lye.

    That's actually where I got the idea, but I'm scarcely near a highway anymore.

    I had mentioned somewhere in a thread that I thought magpie heads would make interesting tassels on a coyote mask sporran; two traditional trickster animals you see. My thought was to manufacture them of styrofoam and paint them though, not use real heads.

    That'd be a very unique sporran.

    I think that'd be fab. Also probably the only use you'll ever have for a magpie's head.

    IMO town pigeons just are too dowdy.

    That would be Kate Macpherson, Brian. A very talented woman. Oh, and I have another very fine use for city pigeons, alive or having collided with windows . View my avatar.

    That's all the persuasion I need to not hang a pigeon on my person at groin level.
