that poor moose looks founderd. i didn't know ungulates would founder. when i was a kid on my ol' man's farm there were lobtser clawed pigs all over the place in the soft tater dirt and in the river bottom. wierd lookin' tracks everwhere. a lot of em had tracks that looked like lobster claws. the biggest midget deer (zat a oxymoron?) i ever shot had really long front hooves that crossed. not as bad as this pig, but they were really long and curly. and it was in the worst rockpile i'ver hunted. nature is pretty wierd sometimes. look at what it did you most o' you guys. :lol: :P Lark.

I just took a javelina with hooves just like the one you found. I will try and post pics later. It also had some funky skin, almost like callouses or maybe warts. I really debated about leaving it but decided against it (felt bad). I hope its not contagious!! :blink: I saved the head and hooves to see if G&F would want to take a look at them.

 

Also, I don't think this is due to soft soil. It was some real rough and ROCKY terrain.
