Well, I guess I was wrong that there wasn't anything out there big enough to drag the carcass off. The day after I put it out there were several pictures with buzzards picking on it, then I got a couple pictures of a coyote investigating it and then it was gone! Poof!! I looked around for it for a while and would have thought that the smell would have allowed me to find it but it must have been either picked clean or drug off a ways. I found a few patches of hair but nothing else.

After the deer was gone I got a couple other pictures of a deer smelling the ground where the dead deer had been and a couple of a coyote looking around but that was it.

Of course somehow after looking at the pictures on my computer out on the property I put the card with the pictures back in the camera and brought the blank one back home so nothing to post now. [&:]

I'll post them in a couple weeks or so next time I go check on things.

FWIW, Nathan
