Salvaging Bones from Food

The day before some food rots (1 day), a yellow button called "Salvage" can appear. Only some food has this option. 8 uses muskox calf = 1 bone so far.

I usually save 1 use of every carcass to salvage for the bones. 1 bone == 1 use of that bone. I've never been able to get more than 1 use from the salvaged bones. 

From 🍃 𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐄𝐍𝐈𝐓𝐘 #22886: Food items with around 16 uses will give u two bones. Anything less == 1 bone. It's not RNG, but the size of the carcass that determines how much bones u get

Can be Salvaged:

Stoat -- 1 bone

Weasel -- 1 bone

Rat -- 1 bone

Muskox Calf Carcass -- 8 uses 1 bone

Muskox Carcass -- 1 use 1 bone; 2 uses 1 bone

Rabbit -- 4 uses 1 bone

Doe -- 1 use

Bovine Carcass 1 use -- 1 bone

Elk Bull Carcass 1 use -- 1 bone

Pronghorn Doe 1 use -- 1 bone

Horse 1 use -- 1 bone

Can't:

Large Meat Chunks 

Medium Meat Chunks

Small Meat Chunks

Quail Egg

Duck Egg

Chicken Egg

Dead fish

Useful!     

I wondered if there was something like this!

Only food items with 16ish uses and up will yield 2 bones. If you eat a carcass down to 1 use, and it used to have 20 uses, you will get 1 bone because most of the carcass is gone. It's not a random chance, but rather the size of the carcass, that determines salvaging results. 

@serenity oh, i didn't know that! thanks <3
