I'd say black bear too, but what's strange about that scull is the lack of sagittal crest - the narrow, sharp, shark fin like spine that runs atop of the scull where jaw muscles attach is missing. . . In fact, it's not even apperent that it ever was even there. It might be that it was a very young bear.

Where did it come from?
