.........freezing the remains and wait till trash day to put in your can. That way the remains wont smell bad. If it is frozen it wont rot! But if you live in the country like me , just pick a spot to feed the coyotes and they will take care of getting rid of it for you. Make sure you do that on your own property though, dont want to get into trouble. The coyotes around here can finish off a whole deer in one night.
well Molly depends on where your at. Here we have a Bio dump
that is a great coyote attractant......AKA bait
or if ya want to spend a little time E-bay is a good dump too.
it depends on what ya want $$$$ or hunting opertunity LOL
its also a great plase for refrence pics of many scavengers and raptors
really depends on your area :o) Happy Holidays
WELL MOLLEY, YOU COULD DE FLESH THEM CLEAN THEM UP, AND THEN BLEACH THEM. KEEP THEM AS A COLLECTION, OR DONATE THEM TO SOME SCHOOLS FOR CLASS ROOM LEARNING. MERRY CHRISTMAS GOOD LUCK ITS NICE TO HEAR THAT SOME FEMALES ARE GETTING INTO THE BUISNESS, IM NEW AT THIS MYSELF.
Kevin had a great idea about donating them to schools in your area. I have had many of my wife's friends (she's a teacher) approach me about skulls to add to their science/biology rooms. the easiest way to clean them is to bury them and let mother nature do the work. Give them about 9 months to break down and dig them up. You can restore their whiteness by using 12% peroxide available from hair salons. paint it on and sit it in the sun. It may take a few applications of peroxide. DON'T use bleach. It will give the bones a powdery brittle finish. Once it's as white as you want it, spray it with a clear laquer. If you don't have the time to do it, contact the school teachers and have them do it. GIve them directions so they do it right. Any high school or Jr. High school should be interested. Heck, i don't see why elementrys wouldn't want them.

Freeze the skulls-when you get a half a dozen or so, sell
them on ebay. It's easy money!-Joe.
Then you can help feed them and the Kids learn even more about natural. You could even donate the beetles.
