Photo and caption sent by reader Al Ladd in Maine.

“Found this bull calf two days ago, but took the picture this morning. Then the hair was mostly in place with just a hole around the rump where I believe the vulchers had eaten into it. Hard gravel and I could see no sign of coyotes or bear. This morning there was plenty of odor to attract anything. This is the 3rd calf in the area that found the winter too long and the ticks too many. A 4th calf was the roadkill I took care of the first of April. About that time warden Brock Clukey said he had already shot 4 calves.”
