Saw this on a walk in Dún na Rí, Kingscourt. Anyone know what it is? Google images no help at all. Surely not a badger? Thought maybe a fox but it’s hard to tell at this level of decomposition. Also, very strange the condition it’s in, almost looks like it was skinned but doesn’t seem likely; anyone know what could’ve happened for it to look like this?
