Abstract

We draw attention to the rarity of non-human bog bodies, reviewing the small number from Britain and Ireland of which we are aware. We use this absence to argue that there is more to becoming a bog body than merely dying on a bog (or falling into a bog pool). Given the potential importance of non-human bog bodies to the interpretation of the human remains we stress the importance of the publication of any examples.
