Umm. Not sure how to do that. Someone commented and suggested that I post this here.

I was the one to suggest that you move it here. I am not an expert but researching some it might be a calf of the later species. It is hard to tell with orbital bones broken out. I do know that people find them washed out in creeks and rivers. What ever you find out please let us know.

Thanks for the info. The one on the right has similar features. The part between the horns.

I'll let you know if I find out anything.

Bovid skull but the diagnostic elements to determine Bison vs Bos are missing. Balance of probability is for Bos (cow) given the small size, but juvenile Bison can't be ruled out.

Can't tell what kind of Bovid it is.
But it looks like it was shot in the forehead. Exactly where one would shoot cattle that are to be butchered.
