does taxidermy, bone cleaning, etc fall under :marseyhole: rule 4?

i clean :marseysoap: bones :marseyskinnedwalk: and collect :marseystamp: taxidermy and i feel like the people here would :marseywood: enjoy seeing rot timelines and such but it feels :marseyvapecrying: like a grey area. all the animals :marseytedsimp3: were already dead when i found :marseymissing2: them (roadkill and such)

example picks underneath:

I have a fox skeleton that is dry but still has some fur remaining! I've never cleaned an entire carcass of this size, so if you have any tips for safely removing the skin&fur it would be more than appreciated!

Typically I use a hydrogen peroxide mixed with water soak to whiten the bones and finish the cleaning.

for my skull :marseyscalped: i just picked off any remaining soft tissue that had dried then used a tooth brush and hydrogen peroxide to get smaller :marseyvenn5: bits + a soak

i'm working :marseylifting: on degreasing my skull :marseychudjora: rn, haven't tackled the body just yet

Id say its fine in /h/social maybe put a content warning first? The animal is already dead and im assuming ethically sourced.

I would love to see this kind of thing get posted. I have wondered if it was ok to post myself, but since it's not illegal I guess it's fine? I have a pretty decent odditys collection that I have considered posting but wasn't sure.
