A Grim Fate


Research Associate Becca and I came across a gruesome sight this morning: the remnants of what appeared to be a young mule deer kill. We hoped it wasn't one of the two we encountered yesterday.
Of course, we had no real way of knowing what happened to the animal, whether it had a fatal accident and was later gnawed on by coyotes or if it was taken by a mountain lion. But either way it was disturbing to witness the fate of this poor young animal.
