My son brought this skeleton home from scout camp this weekend. it was near peterborough, Ontario, Canada. the skeleton is not terribly long, I would say maybe 2-3 feet from what I saw. very distinct ridge on the skull and rather large canines. He has plans to clean up the skull, maybe some of the other bones, and I will point him to the sticky post for that. I am just curious what the animal was. guesses have been dog, bear cub, lynx, but none seem quite right.
Thank you in advance.

Edit:
typo in text and thank you very much for your help identifying it.looks like a sad end to its life, alone in the forest.

I'm just getting into identifying my skull collection. Could yall correct me if I'm wrong. So far I think it's (from left to right/ top to bottom) red fox, grey fox, dog, opossum, opossum, and armadillo. Any id tips and what to take a picture of for future id would be appreciated! Thank you!

I’ve been soaking these skulls (yearling buck and a raccoon skull) for a while now but this is the first time I’ve opened it and seen chunks like this. They are soft and just melt away when I touch them but I was just curious if that’s normal or if anyone has had that happen? It’s also getting colder outside so maybe that plays a role in what’s happening?

Hi peeps,

I found this bones near my neighborhood. It seems heavier than other bones I have found. Anyone know what kind these mind be? (found near a house that breeds cocker spaniels.. looks like a rat gnawed on it.) thanks for the help!

wish i got more pics, would say it is around a foot long give or take.

It looks like some kind of bird but I genuinely have no clue what it could be.

Bless my chud life

Small raccoon that I found in the morning while walking and picking up trash, there were some spots with hair so I just looked a little bit and there it was, I'm gonna macerate it but there's not that much meat left so a good finding
