I think it’s a monkey of some kind.

Of dead kind.

Probably, a cat… I’ve noticed some typical teeth there…
It is definitely a mammal…

It’s a house cat. The teeth and feet give it away.

Skeletal anatomy clearly identifies this as a cat - no mystery; skull, teeth, claws, feet, hair on feet, shoulder blades, ah heck, all of it says cat. Not looking it’s best that’s for sure.

Not mysterious but it makes me sad. Looks like a cat to me. Poor thing.

Am I the only one who’s read Singularity by William Sleator? Check the area for signs of a very localized temporal disturbance.

Cat, but I’m surprised the bones are all in one place. Whenever I come across them, they are usually scattered over many square feet. The teeth can be really tricky to find. (I sometimes take the skulls home, clean and articulate them,)

I know this one. It’s a puzzle from ā€˜The Dig’
It looks kinda like a turtle.

I don’t think we can rule out human remains. It could very well be the bones of a white blond haired blue eyed kidnapped little girl. Get Nancy Grace on the horn. I suppose she could use another one of these stories.

I think the world will be a better place when (and if) we can treat such graphic imagery of freshly killed animals like we would those of freshly killed humans. I think it’s wrong that one is considered worse than the other, and usually forbidden, or marked NSFW or ā€œdisturbing.ā€ We’re animals too. The sooner we accept that and extend the respect we pay to human animals to other ones too, the better off we’ll all be.
