doushantuo Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 Possibly rhinocerotid.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mahnmut Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 Hi, these straight lines look Bovid to me. My quick image search on Rhino scapulae looked more rounded, but thats all I know about those. Not a Buffalo?

doushantuo Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 I see where Mahnmut's opinion is coming from, and, moreover, I trust his zootaxonomical nous. Strictly morphologically speaking: (CHANGE OF OPINION HERE!) : bovine affinity more likely than rhinocerotid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doushantuo Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 I somehow suspected you'd be along, Harry. Good, simple line drawings, and very useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
