It took me a while to ascertain that these remains belonged to a chipmunk. Skull shape says rodent, size narrows it down, fur remnants make it more sure. If we had them here it could be a red squirrel. If the chestnut fur weren't there it could have been a flying squirrel. If the tail were present it would have been even easier to eliminate rats from the possibilities.
