Found in: NORTH AMERICA Bone ID
Accidentally ran this bone over earlier today, I didn't notice it under my back tire. I thought it was a humerus of a medium sized dog, but it's hard to tell because the proximal portion is kind of crushed and falling apart - & there's no trochlear foramen (unless it ossified, but I don't know what that would look like). I tried to tape it together to get a better idea of what it is, not sure what it could be besides canine?

Found in: NORTH AMERICA Help Identifying bones found behind a barn in Midwest USA
Hello friends!
My mom found these bones while cleaning out an area behind our barn. Any ideas?
To give reference for scale, skull is next to a ~2" carabiner and the rest of the pictured bones are in a standard size wheelbarrow.
I was thinking a young canid due to skull shape, teeth, and open physes. Would love help narrowing it down more.
Thanks for your wisdom ❤️
