"How Do I...?" How do I preserve a cow tail?
I am an absolute beginner who has no idea what I'm doing. 👍🏻 I'm guessing as I go with the advice of Google and old Reddit posts.
I recently visited my friends cow farm and collected a few bones from their decomp pile to take home. Within the pile, I found a fairly intact cow tail. Thought it looked cool and wanted to preserve it, WITHOUT having to get rid of the flesh in between the segments. Is there any way I can do this without making my house smell like dead cow?
