Dragons: Saffrons skeleton
Saffron the hen had died... But that doesn't stop Bruno (the owner) and Saffron from going on an awesome adventure! Saffron died from eating rhubarb leaves. That very day that Saffron died, Bruno got a call from his neighbor, George, he asked if one of his hens died. That may seem like an odd question but George is a osteologist. Bruno didn't want Saffron to go on a show as a skeleton but then he thought what else could Saffron be doing.. rotting in their garden or going on a awesome adventure. Bruno took Saffrons skeleton to Georges workshop. There was a lot of bones from different types of animals such as seahorses, Sharks teeth, a flounder and there were also heaps of chemicals. The first thing George did was put saffrons body into hot boiling water, this will make it easier to remove the feathers.2 days later.. Bruno was back at the workshop. George showed him his magic helpers, they're dermestid beetles. Those beetles help him get rid of meat fibers that are still on the bones. Next they put the bones in a machine that removes the fat and oil from the skeleton. After they bleach it to make the bones look white and clean. Saffron ended up hanging with the dinosaurs.
