Does anybody have a protocol for decalcification and processing of 
shrew mandibles?
They are just a little over a centimeter in length and not very thick 
so I don't think the decaling would be very long.
Haven't done this type of tissue before so I'm wondering if anybody 
out there has some hints for sectioning. The person who brought them 
said they could be hard to cut.

Thanks.

Andi
