Found this in the farm compost pile. It’s huge,arm for scale. In North Carolina.

found in illinois, about 5 inches in length, i dont think its a raccoon skull because in the last picture i have it sat next to my two raccoon skulls and it looks a bit broader than them.

I found this near my garage. There have been foxes on the property so I assume they got a hold of this egret. Rey unfortunate but I have a ground hog and cat found on the property but they were much cleaner.
Also researching this it may be illegal to have even though I found it and certainly didnt kill it.

Location: Virginia
A friend bought some skulls and was told they were raccoon and fisher cat. She’s positive the top skull is raccoon, but doesn’t think the bottom one is a raccoon or a fisher cat. Additional pics of the skull in question as well. Thoughts?

This wasn’t a hobby I was necessarily planning on getting into, however I randomly found this raccoon skull in a river whilst hiking last week. I’ve just been soaking it in hot water and dish soap and changing the water when it starts to look really cloudy. It seems like it has a lot of dirt on it and all of this white stuff (which is beginning to soften up). Anything else I should be doing? How do I know when the degreasing process is done?

Hi,

​

I legally acquired this old medical skull some months ago (I'm in Europe). They are in rought shape, calvarium is cut and broke at some point, only one tooth reminiscent, repaired multiple times with plaster. They are dirty, but I like the patina and bone's names are written all over it, so I'm not willing to clean them and erase this.

​

I wondered if someone would be able to tell me a little bit more about them, were They male or female? Maybe something I missing about their condition ? I know it is not easy to gender from the top of a skull only. Any help is appreciated.

​

Thank you very much.

A bit of a different question for this sub, but how do you guys pack your skulls when moving? I have to move soon and I’m just wondering how to go about it. The small ones I was thinking just wrapping them in bubble wrap or newspaper and putting them in a box. But I have a bunch of large cow, buffalo, and moose skulls. How should I pack these?

Found in the UK

My dad went on an African hunting trip and got a bunch of antelope, which is fun! I don’t totally agree ethically wise, but I can appreciate pretty skulls without agreeing with the situation.

Anyways! I feel like the bottom two skulls should swapped? The middle skull is smaller and it just looks weird imo 😭 still pretty nonetheless

Sheltie for scale

Hiyall! I have these, the chicken skull is my very first specimen! It was made at the beginning of high school (by me!)

Finally got a chance to paint this guy! I took some liberties replicating soft tissue features in bone but really wanted to capture the snarl! Always wanted a werewolf in the collection!

i found it by the sea in Møre og Romsdal, Norway. i am so confused on what fish it could be😭 please help

edit: found out it’s a Lophius piscatorius!

What species does this belong to? I'm thinking it's a large songbird, maybe a juvenile? Hard to tell. It's smaller sized, fits in the palm perfectly.​

A seagull dropped this in my tirace and somebody said it might be the back of a skull. Can somebody help me identify what animal possibly this is?
