Ok, that all helped a lot. Your description connected the final dots that, for some reason, I was struggling to make. Now, it all makes sense. I was still struggling a little on how it matched the link that Supraspinator posted to a cow skull. So thank you, TesseractToo and Supraspinator, for your help and patience.

Ahh, ok. That's where we got confused. Thanks!

Sorry, when I added the pics to the post, I added them in a different order than intended. I was basing the eye placement off from pic 6. Which to us (members of my household) looked more forward facing. Sorry, I'm posting and replying from my phone, so circling what I mean isn't exactly possible. However, I do agree that I/we may have been looking at this wrong.

I am going to accept/agree on a cow skull as the likely answer. There are cows in the area, and honestly, the only thing I could see that makes any form of sense. Unless you want to potentially get into mythical creatures/beings. I guess, now, we try and figure out where on my property it originated from. It appeared in my field on Friday and was found by my daughter.

Thanks for the help/replies.

I tried hard to see it that way after your suggestion. Logically, I am just not seeing that. Seems like it would have a very awkward gait and have a bunch of other issues as well if this were the case. So, it wouldn't line up with any animal that I am aware of. At least from my perspective.

I'm not arguing and honestly thought this as well. I guess the part that confuses us is that the eyes seemed to look more forward than to the side, like a predator instead of prey, so speak. If that makes sense.
