Mystery Death

This was strange. This juvenile wild hog was killed sometime between the first time Buz & I passed this field and 35~45 minutes later when we passed it again. I'm not sure whether a bear got it or maybe a pack of coyotes but I'm leaning towards the bear

It seems that if a bear killed it, it would have packed it off and eaten it.

Nice close up of this wild hog Dick. I agree: it sure looked like a bear malled it.

But not eaten? Spooky... did you look over your shoulders in case the attacker was still in the vicinity? I'm sure I would have high-tailed it out of there. :)
