Those empty eye sockets staring back at you belong to an 
American Mink (
Neovison vison).  The skull was almost perfectly clean, but has a little lingering smell.  It is now resting on my desk in a jar of borax (sodium tetraborate decahydrate) to get rid of the smell.  In the fall it will be used in my Michigan Mammals program.
 
This is amazing!!
