For some animals, the word boner is quite literal.

Wielding quite the weapon! |
This gentleman is holding an oosik, or Walrus Boner Bone. These are found in lots of groups and are called baculums, but none are quite so impressive as the walrus oosik. These things are HUGE: recently, a huge fossilized oosik of an extinct walrus
was sold for $8,000 at an auction. The oosik was FOUR AND A HALF FEET LONG.
