Would you mind removing this moth photo from the Identifying Animals Through Osteology Mission? Osteology is actually the study of vertebrate bones. It's a detailed study of the structure of bones, the skeletal elements, teeth, morphology, function and disease. Osteology aids in identifying vertebrate remains with regard to age, death, sex, growth, and development. Moths don't actually have any bones in their body, rather they have an exoskeleton. Thank you for your understanding! :)
