  You can absolutely get the corpse unembalmed but you won’t find any mortician willing to do this. You can do it yourself with a ton of Dermestid beetles, though, but it’s gonna smell awful.

    There’s gotta be a service that does this, though.

    With some searching around, I found this place in Oklahoma: skullcleaning.com

    They mainly deal with hunting trophies but their price list covers almost every vertebrate animal you could think of: skullcleaning.com/…/skull-cleaning-pricelist/

    “Human” is conspicuously absent, of course, but then you go to the “Skeletal Articulation” page and the first photo is of a fucking Centaur lmfao: skullcleaning.com/…/skeleton-articulation/

    I feel like if you called up and asked, you at leastwouldn’t get a hard “no”. I’d bet good money that they’ve done work on human cadavers before.

      I love the suspicious amount of research you put into this

        What can I say, it nerd-sniped me.

      Likely an explicit no. :(

        It’s easy enough to spin up a fake school, Trump did it.
