Description:
An anthropologist working with forensic teams and victims' families to investigate crimes against humanity in Latin America explores what science can tell us about the lives of the dead in this haunting account of grief, the power of ritual, and a quest for justice.
"Exhumation can divide brothers and restore fathers, open old wounds and open the possibility of regeneration-of building something new with the pile of broken mirrors that is loss and mourning."
Over the course of Guatemala's thirty-year armed conflict -the longest ever in Central America-over 200,000 people were killed. During Argentina's military dictatorship in the seventies, over 30,000 people were disappeared. Today, forensic anthropologists in each country are gathering evidence to prove atrocities and seek justice. But these teams do more than just study skeletons-they work to repair families and countries torn apart by violence.
In Still Life with Bones, anthropologist Alexa Hagerty learns to see the dead body with a forensic eye. She examines bones for evidence of torture and fatal wounds-hands bound by rope, cuts from machetes-but also for signs of a life lived: to articulate how life shapes us down to the bone. A weaver is recognized from the tiny bones of the toes, molded by years of kneeling before a loom; a girl is identified alongside her pet dog. In the tenderness of understanding these bones, Hagerty discovers how exhumation serves as a ritual in the naming and placement of the dead, and connects ancestors with future generations. She shows us how this work can bring meaning to families deal

Great little toy for playful small dogs
These toys are a soft latex kind of material. I would not recommend these for larger dogs who can wreck a tennis ball, or who are rough with toys.
The material of these toys lasts quite a while, but does break down in direct sunlight in addition to dog saliva and being left outdoors in inclement weather. My dogs have played with these toys for a week's time with no adverse reactions from the materials.
For a better explanation of the toy, see my video. I show a "durable" toy that is at least 12 years old. I show a similar toy to these here, but shaped like a chicken. It is showing the effects of time, and dog love; it was a favorite of my previous pet, and bequeathed to the dogs I now have. This chicken toy will "disappear" soon because its material is breaking down.
I highly recommend these toys for dogs who like small toys, soft toys, and toys that squeak. I do not recommend these for dogs who are "chewers" of toys, large dogs who may swallow this toy(it fits in an average woman's palm), for owners who hate squeeking toys, or for a pack of dogs who will bite and pull at this toy. Although it does have stretch, it can be sliced with sharp teeth, and come apart.

FOUND IT!!!
My dog had found one of these on the road and absolutely love this toy it had hole in it from other dog's teeth hardly bounced but he loved it. I looked in every store I went to trying to find this toy could never find it finally was looking for dog toys found this package, was hoping it was the same thing. Oh it was! When I say my dog loves his toy that is an understatement he has played and will play with this for hours no problem leaving him at home alone he is entertained. If he's not throwing this around and chasing it he's laying down and sleeping because he's wore out. It's squeaky it's bouncy and hopefully durable it is soft fits in his mouth and he just has literally a ball with it. He is laying here panting so much right now from playing with this ball this morning to your dog a favor and yourself get these balls get this toy. On the other side of that you might have to take it away from them when you go to bed at night because ours wants to play with it at the weirdest times and it is squeaky thanks so much hope this helps

These Ones Last - Great for Small-Medium Dogs
I really want to give 5 stars but after a week, 3 of 5 squeak no more. Regardless, more of a donut shape and great for small-medium jaws. Safe to throw around the house and the soft latex easily handles bite after bite without falling apart like other tennis-ball like dog toys. These ones last and are good for hours of fun.
