Collection Guessing game
What’s your first impression of this skull? Not asking for an ID—I already know what it is. I just think it’s an interesting skull and I’m curious what people would guess it to be at first glance. What animal does it remind you of? Tips：22.71cm L *11.79cm W (measured by caliper)

Maned wolf.
Too large for a coyote. Not robust enough for a wolf. Long slender canine teeth. And if it was a "generic" canid like a coyote or wolf, it wouldn't be interesting enough to play a guessing game with.
