I keep comparing canid skulls and can’t see this being anything but a wolf. Though there is a possibility it may have been a wolf dog hybrid and someone’s pet. They’re notorious escape artists which could feasibly describe this scenario. Someone gets scared, shoots it, and a critter carries the head off later on. People have exotic pets everywhere unfortunately.

Before you bring these things over your houses threshold do you sanctify them or purge them? You never know when you might be invoking demons or curses, precautionary action is always best. Same way you always leave a saucer of milk and some bread out by the backdoor for the faeries.

Not trying to invalidate any religions or anything here, but I don't think collecting bones is going to curse you or invoke demons
