I had been hunting this Blacktail for 3 years and was crushed when I found him like this
. I had hundreds of trail cam pic's of him but just couldnt catch up to him. There are a lot of cougars in the area so that would be my guess to what happened to him. The last pic's I have of him he looked healthy. Oh well thats life, I guess I'll have to settle for hunting his offspring,, and the cougars!!!
