Horse Skull

Description The large and slender horse skull has long, broad, tapering nasals. At the front of the mouth are large incisors, designed for cropping grass. At the back of the mouth are six large, squared molars on either side of the maxilla and the mandible. The area between the incisors and the molars is called the bar. In that space sits a canine tooth (not present in all horses). The eyes sit back far on the head, typical of grazing animals. The braincase is small. The original male specimen of this cast was a large retired police horse. 2-part skull (separate cranium & jaw). Size: 51 x 54 x 30 cm
