The Skull Riddle Thread

Adam Khor · 25-09-2011 12:45am #1

So, I was thinking this may be a fun thread. I'll put up a photo of an animal's skull and whoever identifies it correctly gets to post the next photo and so on, what say you?

Here it goes:

Good idea for a thread!

Is that a deep sea angler??

Bonobo?

Don't want to be a constant sour puss on this forum but perhaps some ground rules?

Try and supply a scale, and a clue whether the animal is extinct or not. Actually, may not really be needed.

I think stoneil's is a Australopithecus afarensis skull but i'm only guessing (google searching hominid skulls).

please wait until your guesses are confirmed before posting a new picture

Mickeroo · 25-09-2011 1:00pm

aaaargh it's chaos

You're only meant to post a pic if you guessed the previous one correctly!!

Fair enough.
I was wrong anyway. Post deleted.

I would have guessed paranthropus, maybe a smaller variety than boisei. Possibly Homo georgicus. Is it an extinct animal?

Adam Khor · 25-09-2011 8:40pm

People, this is wrong XDD Let's follow the rules ok?

You only get to post a picture when you're the one who has correctly guessed the last picture AND the one who posted the pic has confirmed it.
Otherwise it'll be a MADHOUSE!

You are indeed. Will we continue then or will we wait for the poster to confirm?

Sid_Justice · 25-09-2011 11:43pm

Well if you're not continuing the game, why guess in the first place? :S

Sid_Justice · 26-09-2011 12:19am
