Pixman Report post Posted February 9, 2014 So I found a deer skull a few years ago and decided to put it out in front of my trailcam so animals would stop and investigate and I could get pics of them. Well I have had it out in the same place for 2-3 years and when I went out last week to check my cam I couldn't find it. Once I got home and looked through my pics it looked like a Javelina ate it. Has anyone seen or heard of this before because it seems very strange to me. If you look at the time on the cam pics it devoured the skull in minutes.

singleshot Report post Posted February 9, 2014 Great pictures! A friend of mine killed a very unique bull last year and after the pictures got out he received some of the same bull with a four point mule deer shed in his mouth. Watched a rock squirrel kill and eat "chicks" baby chickens and fight the very pissed off hen. Seen another one dragging a bull snake across the road that i'm sure it had just killed. All wildlife, as humans, have a tremendous will to survive. thanks for the pics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edge Report post Posted February 9, 2014 Scavenging bones and sheds is how a lot of critters get their sodium and potassium. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jimmer Negamanee Report post Posted February 9, 2014 Cool picture! (And the mineral supplement theory put forth by Firstcoueswas80 and Edge seems to make perfect sense to explain why.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
