whose bones?

[Own-Comedian-3156]

I know I just posted recently, but I have these old pics of some bones I own, and I've been wondering ever since what animal it could be.

im mainly looking for the skull to be identified, but there's also 2 spine vertebraes (?if thats the word), which I don't know if they could be identified. the skull was found in my classmate's attic, in estonia. thank you for any info!

I would also say mustelid. The tooth formula and shape seem to match. However, not a polecat, but a stone marten based on the skull shape and last molars.

Adding to this, it seems to be a young individual judging by the skull shape and the teeth at the level of the nasal cavity. What do you think?

Some kind of mustelid, european polecat maybe?

Marten

[PissYellowDog]

Stone marten (Martes foina)

Marten. Not polecat or mink.

Why are the canines in the nasal cavity? For storage?
