well I was very interested...mostly in how mystifyingly bogus this was.
"Pickled" bats are almost never skeletonized...if one's goal is a bat
skeleton, you dump a freshly dead non-preserved bat into the dermestid
beetle larvae. Once a bat is pickled, the meat is much harder to remove
with dissecting tools and the bugs ain't gonna touch a bat body full of
preservatives, even if one has painstakingly picked/cut/pulled most of the
meat off beforehand. And the comment about 'good science' being
messy...this aint science, its tech work

Donna,
Thought you'd be interested.
Linda
One of my friends on facebook shared this video of a very neat bat
reconstruction.
