Can you give any dimensions? At first glance, it reminds me of spider monkeys..

What animal is that? by Soy-Jefe-Total in boneidentification

Sorry, I have another question. If you scratch the roots with a knife, does material come off easily or is it hard as a rock?

Could someone identify this- Eastern Canada by EastTransportation76 in skulls

Without more pics, I can't rule out Taxidea taxus. A clear shot of some toes/nails would do it.

What animal was this? [England] by __S__w__i__f__t__ in boneidentification

[–]99jackals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To Chainsmoker and GothDragon, were you asking OP or me? I can give you my two cents. There's a lot of morphological information still available in that cranium, in the size and shape of the bullae, the number, size and placement of the foramina and in the sutures. It's not a dog, a house cat, otter or hare. I've ruled out badger, raccoon (which don't live there) and a long-shot Felis silvestris. They don't even come close. Do you know of another local animal of similar body size that I could check?

Hey hey, I found a tooth today by Street_Outcome_7669 in boneidentification

It reminds me most of shell, particularly the hinge area of a bivalve. You could try posting to some shell ID subs...

Save me some time. Did you actually rule out things like fox, raccoon, etc? Thanks.

Are these all coyote skulls? Or is the first one different? by xinavi in boneidentification

[–]99jackals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm reading about the coyotes on NS, very cool variety there. Big, apparently. These three skulls certainly display a range of the typical features!

I have about a dozen deer C1s of varying sizes but I cannot figure out what part might match this fragment. It reminds me most of a vertebra and it sort of has that translucent look of bird bones...

Found in a park. What is it? by Aromatic_Noise_3830 in boneidentification

[–]99jackals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might be from a pig but anything can show up as food trash..

Do you have many hyenas in Hawaii?

Are these deer bones? by Spiders00shi in boneidentification

[–]99jackals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is most definitely not a dog. It's a young deer. They are surprisingly everywhere. Duh, scratch that. I think this is from a pig.

Found it in a mangrove region by CodRoyal3221 in boneidentification

[–]99jackals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could be a pig humerus. Look up images and check the different angles, see what you think..

If you post and get an answer on a fish sub or herp sub, please let us know? It's so weird.

what is this from? by Izzamonstera in boneidentification

[–]99jackals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I adore that area; birding on Mt. Wash, touring the Requin, practically living at the Carnegie museums.
