unidentified skull

[DrPizza]

I'm going nuts.. I found a skull, thought "that's neat, I've never seen one of those before"
Now, my friends and I can't figure out what it is... We've seen plenty of skulls, but not one like this.
(or else, we're forgetting something)
It's about 6 inches long.

Catfish?

It's a Polmethadepromoidontknowpeckrodon.

Horse

 

[DrPizza]

Nope, none of the above.... I've been searching all over online, and can't find anything like it.
I'm stumped.

 

[Mermaidman]

Maybe it is NOT a skull?

Mountain lion

Duck-billed platypus.

I should say also that I found this in western NY, along the bank of a stream. (thus it could be aquatic or non-aquatic - I find many skulls along streams... injured animals often die along streams, or drown and get washed away by streams.)

Yeah, I don't think it's a skull. You have it there in hand though, so what makes it a skull in your observation?

Looks like some kind of pelvis to me.

Yea...the underneat view sorta looks like its backbone is right there...maybe you got the pelvic bone...

 

[CanOWorms]

it's obvious that it's a walrus' penis bone

As sward666 stated, it's not a skull, it's most likely a pelvis. Note the fused vertebra, and the sockets for the leg bones.

I agree, it's not a skull. What made you think it was a skull? lol...

 

[Bulk Beef]

Whoa - a google of "fox pelvis" was useless, but interesting nonetheless.

 

[NL5]

shoulder....

 

[myusername]

Squid!

 

[dighn]

pelvis of a Gray!

 

[DrPizza]

Yes, that was dumb of me to think it's a skull... just the way it was lying there, it looked like a skull with the eye sockets being where the ball & socket joints would go. Definitely a pelvis, though I'm not sure which animal.

I would be scared if that turned out to be a skull cause the sh*t on top looks wicked and alien like.

Could be an unidentifiable bit of Jimmy Hoffa...

 

[xSkyDrAx]

maybe it's a weird looking rock.
