I stumbled across this video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=che6mgoSvso

Where someone has found a strange looking skull.   Huh

Do any of you folks know what it is?  Grin

I say it looks like a horse skull.  But I'm no expert.

I would also say deer. Road kill probably. I wonder how many hunters they actually asked.

Definitely not a horse. The jaw is all wrong. Whitetail deer.

Hmm, if a deer, it appears to have an upper canine and what appears to be a molar like tooth in front of that.

What is the flat spot that appears to be almost pedicle-like directly above the eye?  Incorrect anatomy for a whitatail buck.

Why does it still appear to have an eye in that state of decomposition.

Baking soda is sodium bicarbonate. They are one and the same...

Re-hydrate! It is an important step.

Looks too large for a white tail. I would guess a small elk?

Whats even sillier is that this was posted Apr 19, 2009. All of a sudden, there is a rush of new comments. Ok, Now to pick names on here and match them up with the video comments user names.  Smiley
