Re: Slightly morbid quiz - name that skull

I can sup my dram in contentment now thanks Roy and Hedgie.

I did wonder about mink but with no scale wasn't sure, it does look a lot bigger in the images to me.

Wonder what it had been eating to wear teeth down like that.

I also zoomed in the fur and noticed it was pretty fine and looks like a fawn mink and not black, can you confirm that?

Nice one HW, I really can't imagine Roy in the duff ID group!

This is a pretty good site for the unfamilair skull stuff.

WILL'S SKULL PAGE - HOMEPAGE

EDIT - having just reviewed Roys entry, I can confirm that I have seen a large copper in Gloucestershire so don't worry - they're out there!
And Choughs, well at least one, feeding in the gutter of a bungalow in Cheltenham Road.

EDIT AGAIN - Am I going to retract the word ****. No, just post the bird skull image HW, please!
