It is not. The lower vertebrae of humans don't have ribs like that.

Human pelvi also don't look anything like that. I'm betting on coyote.

The spine looks too stiff for a coyote and the pedicles of the vertebrae in dogs are smaller. I would guess it's a deer.

Human vertebrae have pedicles too. The pelvis and spine are way too small though for a human.
