At one point, comments about tinfoil hats was a violation of Tallysmom's guidelines for this forum. Let's keep it civil, folks.

Youre more than welcome to report any of my posts to a moderator, if it offends you.

I appreciate your permission to do so!

As a side note, it takes a lot more that that to "offend" me. I was simply lobbying for civil discourse.

Hey, I missed that one. Yes, tinfoil/aluminum hat is considered a personal attack on this forum. It is not that way on the other forums on this site. So please keep that in mind.

Thank you

To get back on topic has this dogman skull been determined to be real or just another hoax?

Did anybody ever click on the YouTube video of the original link? There are several good comments to that video like this one:

"Emily Phelps
4 months ago
It's a rottweiler skull 100% I am a researcher and know for a fact dm are real but this is most definitely not one"

Or this one:

"German Research Project
4 months ago
I have looked at hundreds of human skulls as anthro. student, hundreds of Dire wolf skulls at Rancho LaBrea, owned a wolf, worked on non-human primate projects: This is a canine, beyond doubt. To separate wolves and dog skulls, there is a test. It is the angle formed between the nasal and frontal bones when the skull is seen in profile. Assume a flat line is no angle. Low angle =wolf, larger angle=dog. This has a large angle so qualifies as dog. BUT it is also about as robust as a wolf otherwise and has large sagittal crest so this could well be a wolf-dog hybrid such as a Mastiff-type dog and wolf. But do the right thing and get a DNA test by donating one molar. Exclude this before going on to a dog-man. North of what is the US/Canadian line, another large wolf was king. It is recently discovered and called the Beringian Wolf. It was a large, very robust Grey Wolf subspecies. The leading expert on this wolf and the differences between ancient dogs and wolves is Dr. Jennifer Leonard. You ought to send the pictures to her. She was at UCLA but the last I knew she was in Spain. Try this email: JLeonard@ebd.csic.es"

So the question is if anybody has submitted material for testing, who tested it, and what are the results? We can talk about this forever, but since the material is available to be tested, let us put this subject to the test. Isn't it better to know what we are debating than simply speculating?

I mentioned that way back when this thread started. But as usual, "No, its not a dog, etc."
