What is this animal?????

I took a computer punch card class in college and a DOS class in the 80's.
A bit rusty but a quick learner, you hiring?

BTW: Never mind my previous "financial windfall" post. After a quick discussion here i was told, in no uncertain terms, "hope you can tie up your new boat....by yourself. ....
..

If you put a GI Joe in that thing wonder if it would qualify as an observer.

You guys ...... silly goofs!

Definitive is not possible with a picture like that.......... Looks like a Maine Coon cat skull to me. Teeth are wrong for rodent or porcine. Ears carriage and placement are incorrect for canidae. Likely a big, long-nosed cat .... (could also be small bobcat since you guys like the exotic.... don't know what Bobcat-like cats you have around there.....)

Brian,
No, that's just a HW look alike. HW won't travel that far north in Wisconsin because they don't import Coors lite that far and he doesn't like Leinenkugel

Yes that occurred to me..
.
A while back my drinking buddy across the street had a coyote in his backyard. He ran after it with a machete and it leaped/cleared his tall fence in a single jump. Not something I would have done but he's an ex-French Foreign Legion sniper so pretty crazy. (also a former multi-national European special forces Muy Thai kickboxing Champion, good friend to have ha ha)

So I'd guess it was a coyote, or airmail from a passing bird of prey.

My guess:   the cat was killed by a chupacabra who dropped it in the dumpster behind the chinese buffet, then found by a raccoon who then dragged it to Jeff's back yard.

I bet they have Bobcats in GA! Headed to Germanfest tonight in Milwaukee, so I will have to keep a close look out for the Lion Roaming the streets in Milwaukee

Latest theory from Milwaukee radio.....Someone put a lions mask on a Bull Mastiff, and let ole Fido roam the neighborhood. Pretty creative!
