Field Notes

Description:

Skull sits on a 6 x 6 in box. Lacks a supra occipital crest. Has I 3/3 and PM 2/2 as far as can be seen. Also has a flatter zygomatic arch. Possibly juvenile.

Notes:

Need help ID-ing this skull. Was found from a skull collection in the 'trash' pile. Unsure of the origins. Thoughts of what species it is have been raccoon and badger. Any information or ideas would be greatly appreciated as well as sources and pictures for comparisons!
