Kutembea Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Hi everybody! I found this fossil online, and it the description says "wolf skull, of a young individual. Found near the remains of a mammoth" Can you tell if it is a wolf skull, and which species it is? What can you tell about the pictures? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miocene_Mason Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 It's a canid but I don't know more than that, as I am not skilled in this matter (in other words I can't tell a dog skull from a dire wolf skull). @Harry Pristis may be able to help. “...whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been and are being evolved.” ~ Charles Darwin Happy hunting, Mason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fifbrindacier Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 I agree it's a modern canid skull. "On ne voit bien que par le coeur, l'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux." (Antoine de Saint-Exupéry) "We only well see with the heart, the essential is invisible for the eyes." In memory of Doren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
