My new favorite bone

Leah found this jawbone in the forest like 5 months ago and I’ve been wanting it ever since. I adore this jawbone and it is so rare since baby deer don’t die often. The last time that Leah and I went to the forest I found a baby deer jaw. It probably goes with her jaw. I was so happy when I found it. The top is a little broken but I love it. I know it’s a baby jawbone because it’s very small and not all the teeth have grown in. I compared it with an adult one below.

The tooth that hasn’t grown in yet is the picture below. It’s sort of hard to see but it’s the last one on the left.

Now Leah and I both have a baby deer jaw. But it doesn’t mean I don’t still want hers 🙂
