We don't know.How did the skull end up in the middle of the road/path?
Toddler's skulls are very round, so it looks like they roll even more easily than adult skulls. Considering it was in a mountainous area, the skull probably rolled down from somewhat above, either from his resting place (snow melting etc) or from the place animals dragged the remains. If the road is situated in a way that on one side of it there is a hillside going up, then it can make sense that the skull going down from there would stop rolling somewhere in that flater area that includes the road. I would not be surprised if that's what happened, IIRC Esther Dingley's skull was also found elsewhere from the rest of her remains due to rolling down in the mountains, and she was an adult.How did the skull end up in the middle of the road/path?

might be an idea to look at this in conjunction with weather maps showing any severe winds or other weather events in the area since his departure..Mort du petit Emile : le sentier où a été retrouvée une partie du corps au cœur de nombreuses interrogations (extrait traduction Reverso)
The area seems inaccessible to a child of 2 years and a half. The walk is rough through the rocks and you have to be careful not to fall into a ravine on the left. Trees as far as the eye can see... After more than twenty minutes of walking on this rugged terrain, one approaches the place where Emile’s clothes were found Everything becomes complicated, the descent is steep, a stream makes the earth muddy and the humidity is felt. The descent continues, and the difference in altitude is very strong. Finally a waterfall appears: we are back near the departmental road 900. Questions in your head.View attachment 497470
I am not sure about trying to claim an area would be inaccessible to a 2.5-year-old but accessible to an adult. I have seen toddlers do amazing thing

Correct.I've seen so many cases where people (children or otherwise) did things it was insisted they wouldn't have been able to do. I no longer believe it's impossible for anyone to do anything; I only believe it's *unlikely* they could do it.
I agree. The thing about toddlers, is they're almost always controlled by adults. Parents don't allow their toddlers to wander, following them at a distance to see where and how fast they go...they quickly intervene if the child runs out of reach, and literally confine them. So they have no idea what a child that age could do, if unrestrained.Correct.
And toddlers don’t think like adults. Don’t see risks like adults.
A 20 minute walk isn’t outside the realms of possibility for a lot of 2.5 year olds.
Only the Dm would return the wolves....for klicks..wolves? what in the world smh
