It looks like there is remnant of skin reaching down to the end of the “snout” in the bottom pictures.

My guess is the “pile of crap” is the skin I just mentioned, pulled back and piled up there so the mouth can be seen better.

No? Most skulls I’ve seen have a “fusion” seam that looks not too different than that. For example: http://www.skullsite.co.uk/Cattle/cattle.htm
Furthermore, as someone who has seen waterlogged, decayed animal carcases up close, this looks _very_ realistic to me. The putrid smell of soggy, rotten flesh is coming back to me as I type…
I submit to you that it is a real skeleton, of a beluga whale. Here’s a photo of a beluga whale skull replica: http://www.skullsunlimited.com/graphics/tq-238-lg.jpg
Looks darn similar to me. Same general shape. Same tooth pattern. Same notch in the upper jaw. Same fusion seam down the middle of the skull. Same lack of nostrils on the “snout”.

Sounds like that guy gets it.

No, wait, THIS guy gets it.
You get pictures like this over the internet. People freak and try to sound intelligent, followed by people pointing out that it is either A; A whale, or B; part of a whale.
