Default [Dixonary] Round 3032 ONOCROTAL Defs - Vote Now!

I'm picking one anatomical and one not:

10. of the nature of bell-clappers, castanets, rattles etc - especially as
used in religious dances
13. of, or relating to, the development of keratin surrounding live bone, a
characteristic of horns but not antlers.

nothingness

I will go all-in for:
