Title: Guess the skulls-Win a European! (BlackRiver Taxidermy)
Post by: BlackRiverTaxidermy on October 04, 2019, 08:39:57 PM
Heres another year of 'guess that skull'. Was hoping to get this on here sooner, but been crazy. Winner gets a FREE EUROPEAN mount for an elk, deer, bear, or cat (sorry, moose excluded). If one of you win that already have a euro in here, then its free.
So heres the game.....Each member will get ONE chance to guess. Your guess has to be correct on EACH animal and in line (left to right) from the first picture of the 6 skulls lined up (smallest to largest). The following photos are close ups of two skulls at a time to give you a closer look. NO corrections or 'oops I meant...'. Contest goes till Monday evening around 7pm and I will announce a winner, if there is one, and what each skull belongs too. So you have 3+ days to make you one guess. ALL these skulls were all cleaned by our dermestid beetles, degreased, and whitened; and I'm not going to lie, are going to difficult to guess in comparison to previous years. So here's the clue.....they are ALL mammals, and native to Washington State. I will mail the winner a gift certificate at the end of the contest.
Best of luck..... and go!

Hahaa!  I knew it was late!  Otter was in between the Badger, and Coyote, just forgot to type it.  Probably incorrect anyway, but I had to try.

I know that this isn't correct (you said a species had not yet been mentioned), but I don't know what's wrong.

Civets aren't native to Washington...

Civets aren't native to Washington...
Originally no, but they are native now as they are caught all the time in trappers traps so therefore they are on the list now. Species like the nutria as in the same boat but have been here for a very long time and are now listed as a species found in Wa, same with the civet.
