Turkey Wishbone – Furcula

🦃 Genuine wild turkey wishbone

This genuine wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) wishbone, also called the furcula, is recognizable by its two long branches joined at the base.

Its delicate V-shaped outline makes it an interesting piece for collecting, anatomical observation and creative projects.

🦴 A bone from the shoulder girdle

The furcula consists of the two joined collarbones. Located at the front of the chest, between the shoulders, it forms part of the bird’s pectoral girdle, which supports the wings and their movement.

🔎 Collecting and observation

This bone offers a closer look at a distinctive feature of bird anatomy. It can enrich a natural history collection or curiosity cabinet, or serve as a reference for anatomical drawing.

🎨 Crafts and decoration

Its open shape can be incorporated into artwork, hanging decorations or costume accessories for LARP and cosplay.

The branches are thin: handle them carefully and avoid spreading or bending them when assembling your project.

🧼 Care instructions

Dust gently with a soft, dry brush. Avoid impacts and pressure on the branches. Store the bone in a dry place.
