I think we all pretty much agree with that.

I vote dog and not fox. It's legs are very long, almost as long as its body, a fox has shorter legs.

Seems staged to me You don't usually see full skeletons in that good of shape sitting on a nice clean ground like that. Plus the teeth have been bleached.

Can't rule that out. could be a fox head and a small long legged dog body, like a terrier.

I guess I'd wonder what the point is? But then I don't understand why the picture was ever posted to a paranormal forum like that BF forum when it is so obviously a normal everyday critter.

I know the guy personally. Not at all sure as to where it was when photos were taken. No teeth were bleached. No hoax at all.Nothing staged.

The skull does appear canidae, what bothers me about the photo is the difference between the bone coloring and the condition of the teeth. The teeth appear clean and white, and fully intact. Either the animal brushed and flossed twice a day, or they were photo-shopped.

I'm not an expert, this is just something that caught my eye.

I've seen skeletons like that- it's likely the animal was very young when it died, that's all. You can see the front teeth are very sharp. It was probably also a domesticated critter. Under two years old, most dog teeth will look like that. The skeleton looks much more weathered because it was actually covered in flesh and fur (which decayed, of course.)
