Last weekend, I was fortunate enough to be able to visit Iceland, to witness some of it’s remarkable landscapes.
One location we visited was the infamously dangerous Reynisfjara black sand beach, with it’s “sneaker waves”, which regularly drag people out into the freezing waters.
Something else met its fate on those sands and it’s skull now sits outside the visitor centre. Any idea what it might be?
Worth noting there’s a footprint next to the skull, that gives a hint about the scale.
As always, you can add your questions, observations and suggestions in the comments box below. Have fun!
A bit of a hyper oo’ dunnit this week?
Bravo!
beluga?
They’re less topographically extreme.
I thought for a moment that after last week, this week was truly a Baird’s, but no with that crazy skull morphology there ampull evidence that Chris is right
The second page didn’t load.
Odd – seemed ok for me?
Thanks, Paolo, with this link, I got in.
Beaked whale? I once worked with the LA County Museum to identify a (less weathered) healed whale cranium that some tourists picked up in Baja CA Mexico.
But which one? There are quite a few!
I agree with Chris and Adam
Háh! Could be a dead-yrningur for a certain celebrity!
