I spent the five happiest years of my life in a morgue. As a forensic scientist in the Cleveland coroner’s office I analyzed gunshot residue on hands and clothing, hairs, fibers, paint, glass, DNA, blood and many other forms of trace evidence, as well as crime scenes. Now I'm a certified latent print examiner and CSI for a police department in Florida. I also write a series of forensic suspense novels, turning the day job into fiction. My books have been translated into six languages.
I haven’t worked any really crazy ones, and sorry but any semi crazy ones would take too long to explain.
Sorry, but as I'm not a DNA analyst, I wouldn't have any idea.
No, because those fluids would not contain acid phosphatase.
Unfortunately I can't really discuss that on a public forum. And they're all weird, in their way.

Which cuddly-seeming animals are actually dangerous to be around?I'm afraid I wouldn't have any idea. Call your local crime labs and ask their personnel for suggestions.
I'm sorry but I don't know. A DNA testing company can probably help you. Best of luck!
Well, if it's found on the victim, you might ask if it came from the suspect's clothing/upholstery/etc., and vice versa. Or it could similarly link either party to the crime scene, depending upon the circumstances of the case.
