[QUOTE="EIEIO, post: 103646, member: 1947"] You know I stewed on this seems like most the night and someone mentioned poisoning which got me thinking 2 legged critter. Went out this morning and took a look down the valley where the deer and one calf was and both could be seen from the road, or at least the area they were down at could be. The deer was not huge but difinetly big enough that I doubt a pack of dogs or coyotes chased it down. Sure got me thinking about an idiot with a spotlight out having some "fun". We live on a dirt road and are the only folks on the road. Guess I just might never know on this one. Still think tho' if it was a pack of something the bones would be drug about. Know whenever we have had a cow butchered here on site the yote's even drag off the head a ways. When I say I've got a few cows that keep their calves hidden I mean they are just shy enough with their calves for the first few months I don't think nothing of it if they are not around when doing a herd check. One old gal that lost a calf is always the last one to come up, calf or not. Gentle as can be, just slow and shy. Had I not just worked cattle within the last month I might be considering disease but never have I lost 2 calves in such a short time. J [/QUOTE]
