froman, the same thing hapopened to my husbands brand new deer target, its head was tore off and it was actually shredded, something tore off big peices of the foam and dropped them all over the ground. we cant figure out what did it, as there were no tracks on the ground we could see and no distinguished bite marks other than one partial bite mark that may or not have been a deer. i made a pot earlier about this--cant find the date now but had quite a few replys i think and several people said they had filmed or caught deer on deer cams doing it.

my husband and his friends had set them selves up a 3-d range around our home but as several other targets started getting attacked to they eventually took them down, my husband was very upset over this as it was an anniversary present to him from me and was still barely out of the box.

ive heard that if a bear does the damage that the dnr. may replace the targets-or property destroyed.
