Explanation:
If you leave bones in a warm place for a long time, they get brittle because the collagen decomposes or dries out, losing it's "rubbery" flexibility (that's why you have to let a wishbone dry before trying to snap it). Leaving bones in an acid like vinegar will dissolve the apatite out of the bone, making them floppy.
