Why was this left here ? I love to eat elk, I'm not complaining about that; I just wonder why the left overs were left in the road? This is near the High Steel Bridge that goes over the Skokomish River. I've never seen an elk in this area before. Was this shot somewhere else, butchered somewhere else and then the left overs dumped here? There were poles near-by that could have been used for butchering, but there was no sign of blood or guts under the poles or on the trees and I would think that this animal was too big to hang. One last question, why are the hooves cut off? Elk hoof rattles? This is all a mystery to me. Maybe it's a horse?
All I know for sure it that it will be a while before I take my kids back here to roast marshmallows. I'm sorry if these pictures make you sick.
