| A seal's skull looks very similar to a dog or a bear. That does look like a dragon, but I am doubting that (LOL). A sturgeon has a head very similar to that shape, and the spinal column looks to be of a large fish. Bob has the right suggestion. | ||

| Looks like a striper skull to me. A dogfish being a relative of the Sharks and rays has a cartilage skeleton not bone. I found this pic of a dogfish skeleton. Don't know what type.  | ||

I second the vote for a bass skelton (and it makes sense)... the rack drifted and got picked clean. Fish skulls are pretty interesting. I emptied the green crab trap last weekend and have some very strange looking skulls - skup - they look like bird heads. When I get a chance I will post them. The entire collection of bones spells fish and not mammal. Jack | ||
