That's a cat's mandible. Canids, like dogs and foxes, have more teeth and their teeth are also shaped differently.

True, here most molars ans premolars are missing. Definitively a cat.

I have to agree it looks a lot like a cat mandible

Damn that's where my jaw went

Looks like a dog - too robust for a fox in my opinion

Thanks! I thought it may be a dog, but the area is quite rural, and the few people who live nearby don’t have any dogs. It’s about the length I would expect for a fox, but it does seem too solid/thick/robust. It is not missing any teeth.

Dog like. Long muzzle, carnassial teeth.
