Flesh Eating Beetles..need info.?

20 some years ago two classmates of mine made a skeleton display of a rabbit. To clean the flesh and tendons from the bones they used some sort of beetle ordered from a biological supply company. I've lost contact with them and tried looking up what this insect might be. I would like to order some for a similar project but can't find out what type of insect to order. Any info would be good. Thanks!

    That'd be Dermestid Beetles (aka skin beetles), but I have no idea how to care for them

    Dermestids are the traditional ones and are sometimes called museum beetles. People have been known to use mealworms too and they are a lot easier to come by. Other arthropods can also be used.

    What concerning the vegan zombies? I hate it when I take my zombie date out for a very good meal and she or he orders the full cadaver yet in basic terms eats the eyes then says she's complete. Zombie broads, circulate figya If sliced thinly adequate, I dare you to tell the version between thoughts and pepperoni.
