Close, but it's actually a guy looking at us through a pair of binoculars.

Easy - it's a bat hanging upside down.

The name catgut is confusing. There are two explanations for the mix up.

Catgut is an abbreviation of the word cattle gut. Gut strings are made from sheep or goat intestines, in the past even from horse, mule or donkey intestines.

Otherwise it could be from the word kitgut or kitstring. Kit meant fiddle, not kitten.

Actually, it's not mine. It's a set that Aaron Hix has for sale. I thought it was pretty wild looking so I brought it up here to see what the wild imaginations of OLFers might come up with after seeing it.

Wonder what kind of potato chip it will turn into when the humidity changes gaah

Always have to chuckle at some of the wild grain sets offered here and there. There was a time when nobody would have even suggested trying to use this kind of wood for instrument building. Just my $.02
