Don't let the snowman shape fool you. Frosty's lower torso is made out 100% real reindeer poop!
Miller Park Zoo, in Bloomington, Illinois is selling this special necklace, called the Magical Reindeer "Gem" at their zoo boutique. Each of Rudolph's droppings are dehydrated, sanitized in an autoclave machine, painted and drilled that sits all pretty on your chest and just inches away from your mouth.
The idea came about from the zoo's Superintendent, John Tobias. The website explains:
John’s grandmother use to gather her grandchildren and take them outside on Christmas Eve to scatter home made chocolate chips. She would tell the children that the chips would attract Santa and his reindeer to their home, because the reindeer would know that other reindeer had already visited and left droppings…
Umm, we don't know about you, but there's a HUGE difference between chocolate chips and an actual reindeer turd. The story behind it is cute though.
Would U wear a reindeer poop necklace???
