PSEps Report post Posted January 29, 2012 It is not a pelvic bone. You can clearly see the eye sockets, and the nasal passage. It is extremely light weight, and some of the small bones are hollow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PSEps Report post Posted January 29, 2012 I have a number of the javelina skulls and none of them look anything like this thing. It is flat on top and the nasal passage is way different than a javelina. I have compared it to pretty much every mammal, bird, and reptile i can think of that lives in the area and nothing looks like this thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
22-6mm Report post Posted January 29, 2012 That is a turkey back. What you think are eye sockets are the hip sockets for the legs. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
