A somewhat
unusual snowman.
The skull is a bony
structure found in the head of many animals. The skull
supports the structures of the face and protects the
head against injury.
The skull can be divided into two parts: the cranium
and the mandible. A skull that is missing a mandible
is only a cranium; this is the source of a very commonly
made error in terminology. Those animals having skulls
are called craniates...
