Peeled sticks. Why do fresh bones float and old bones sink
?

The laws of buoyancy- the chews float because they are less dense than water. Anything with a density greater than that of water will sink. The water pushes it up until the water logged chew changes density greater than water.

Funny how different regions have different names for beaver chew sticks. Around here in the UP we call it shine. I've only heard the term beaver bones once or twice.
