Skull ??

[chicepo]

I found is skull along the bank of a tidal river. I looked it up on line, but can't determin just what it is. It looks to be canine but the closest on line says Bobcat. any ideas?

Hard to say but I would bet dog or fox Its not a bobcat,there face is more blunt

 

[ivan salis]

coyote or fox

Hard to tell the size. Is that a penny? My first thought was dog.

 

[oldsledz]

I think it is a fox.

Well that rules out coyote

baby coyote / young critter --small size might not be a adult -- young fox is possible as well

Its not a young/juvenile of any species as the canine teeth are fully developed

i think Oldsledz has it. It looks very much like a small Red Fox Skull.

definitely smaller canine breed probably fox... possibly Chupacabra

I agree that it is a fox skull, but not a red or gray fox, it is to small, I think it is a Kit Fox judging by the size...
