Cast from a single tiny vertebra extracted from an owl pellet.
NATURAL HISTORY
Owls swallow their prey whole but are unable to digest bones and fur. They regurgitate the undigested parts of their prey as what are known as owl pellets. Based on the other bones found in the same owl pellet these vertebrae likely came from a field mouse or similar small rodent.
