A skull, or cranium, is a bony structure of vertebrates which serves as the general framework for a head. The skull supports the structures of the face and protects the brain against injury.
This example of a hippopotamus's skull also shows the large canine teeth, used for fighting, which can grow up to 50 cm long.
