azhuntnut Report post Posted July 31, 2006 I was out putting up some new cameras and checking some others when I found this nice coues in the bottom of a run off. I don't think it was a lion kill. I am going to try and score it this week and see what I come up with. I was so excited when I saw it, that I slid most of the way down the hill so my buddy behind me wouldn't beat me to it. I also saw a real tall coues when I was setting up one of my cameras. Hopefully he will be on my disk next weekend. David Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

missedagain Report post Posted July 31, 2006 Very nice! Just out of curiosity what makes you think that it is not a lion kill? I would think that with a crushed mussle like that, that it could be a lion kill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
COOSEFAN Report post Posted July 31, 2006 Very nice! Just out of curiosity what makes you think that it is not a lion kill? I would think that with a crushed mussle like that, that it could be a lion kill. Exactly what I was thinking? A lion kill would have been my first thought on that one, with the nose all crushed like that, never know though, unless you found an arrow near it or somethin? Great find David!

mjmhunter Report post Posted July 31, 2006 Looks like a lion kill, but either way cool find Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azhuntnut Report post Posted July 31, 2006 I thought the skull was crushed from it being roled down the gullie it was in. Plus, I have never seen any cat sign in this area. There are alot of bears, so maybe a bear might have gotten it. I am just really happy I found it. Does anybody want to guess the score? David Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

COOSEFAN Report post Posted August 1, 2006 I really think it's a lion kill, but who knows. As far as score.......I was thinking around 90-91 ealier, BUT after really looking at size comparison with your hand.........I think.....86 1/2. JIM> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
