I’m at my gf’s dad’s summer house outside of Steinkjer and found this on the fjord at low tide in front of his house? Any ideas? Thinking badger or fox but could be canine

      Canine don’t such big corner teeth. Could be badger, not a fox. But not something you see everyday

    2. I don’t know the size, but it could be a bear.
      But since you were thinking badger or fox, I doubt it’s large enough for that.
      The teeth doesn’t quite seem to fit badgers. Wolf? Large dog?

      My guess is a fox. Here is an image of such a scull: [https://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/R%C3%B8drev#/media/Fil:RenardCr%C3%A2ne.jpg](https://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/R%C3%B8drev#/media/Fil:RenardCr%C3%A2ne.jpg)

      While a dog is potentially possible, some breeds have sculls similar to that of foxes, finding the remains of a fox in nature is way more common, as most dogs will either be cremated or buried by their owners.

      I’m quite certain it is not a badger. Here is a badger scull for reference: [https://digitaltmuseum.no/011022718799/kranium](https://digitaltmuseum.no/011022718799/kranium)

      Definitely a dog. Some people are saying it’s a fox or badger, but that **is** **a** **dog** **skull.**
