[QUOTE="GRTiger85, post: 1397951, member: 6161"] Anybody ever found a calf with its tongue bitten off? Had a heifer that calved early this morning probably just before daylight. When I found it heifer was standing over calf and it just looked like it had been stillborn, she had cleaned it off. But went to move it and noticed it had a bite taken out of its bottom lip, inspected further and its tongue had been clean bitten off. Only thing I can think of is coyote came along while she was down having it and took a bite out, she got up and ran it off but the damage was done? No other marks of calf and it died right where she pushed it out, never got up. Guessing it drowned in its own blood, happened right by the house at that. Thoughts?? Been a rough calving season for me [/QUOTE]
