“Creepy.”

“Gross.”

“Wimpy woof dog was not strong enough.”

“The remains of an evil beast.”

“EXOSKELETON FOR INSIDES. PROVIDES STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY.”

“The endoskeleton of Canis lupus, definitely not familiaris.”

“It's covered with dog spit, eh?”

“Hungry devils, aren't they?”

“A fallen föe.”

“There isn't much left.”

“It's a bunch of bones. How comforting.”

Bones are naturally spawning objects that can be found around Hound Mounds or certain Set Pieces such as the Disused Beefalo Pen Trap.
Players are to be wary around Bones, as they may indicate the presence of Hound Mounds nearby, which will spawn numerous aggressive Hounds that will attack the player, or the Bones may be part of traps.
Reign of Giants
In the Reign of Giants DLC, Bones can be found randomly scattered in the Desert Biome. They can also be hammered for Bone Shards and sometimes, a Hound's Tooth.
