The '''skull''' is a [[Bone|bony]] structure found in many [[Animalia|animals]] which provides the framework for the head and protects the head and brain against injury. Animals with skulls are called ''Craniates''.
The skull consists of two bones: the [[cranium]] and the [[mandible]]. A skull that is missing its mandible is only a cranium.
