Is it legal to will your remains to another for science/hobbyist pursuits?

Asked by Coloma (47193points) January 31st, 2017

If you can donate your organs or body for research is it also possible to will your skeletal remains to a private party? Just curious as my daughter collects and articulates animal skulls and skeletons. She is also an artist and loves human anatomy. She was just sharing with me her latest purchase of a museum quality horses skull and I was joking that she could have my skull when I died.

This led me to wonder if it is, infact, possible to leave your skeletal remains to someone?
