marcus28 Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 (edited) Hi! I suppose this is going to be a piece of cake for professionals like you. However this specimen who has most likely met a very violent end in the woods of northern scandinavia stilll remains unidentified to this day. Would anyone be kind enough to take the time to help?

Bone guy Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Looks like a deer. I would say whitetail deer because it's similar to a skull I have, but I'm not familiar with scandinavian deer. That's about as good as skulls come in the harsh woods, good find! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordTrilobite Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Looks like roe deer, or rådjur in Swedish. Very common in Scandinavia. 1 Olof Moleman AKA Lord Trilobite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taogan Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Second vote for Roe Deer, you didn't give a size, but I'm guessing it's about the right size for a juvenile roe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcus28 Posted May 24, 2018 Author Share Posted May 24, 2018 I confirm it matches. A big thanks to all of you for the work and for the welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
