so i found this really cool looking fossil!

[gaztron3030]

Unless I missed a pic somewhere, that's not it's skull, that's it's pelvis. Look's like possibly a goat, the shape is all wrong for a cow pelvis, I know I've got one out in the shed

I think you're right it may be the hind

It does look more like a pelvis. I think that's the butt end, not the end that butts. The "horn attachments" look like hip sockets. cn

could also be a liger..

El Chupacabra.

And that is not a fossil. it's a skeleton. Probably not even a couple of years old considering its condition. I'd be careful of harmful microbes and other little pesky critters that like to hang around rotting corpses.

Exactly. Out here in the country I see skeletons all the time, when the neighbors have a BBQ they just go out to the goat pen and kill, gut, skin and fry it up right on the spot. Then the dogs usually carry the bones all over the neighborhood. That's a pelvis, turn it upside down (right side up) then look at it, then look at the pic shr88 posted.
