Sheds
Let's see some. My horse HATED packing that moose one around all day. I had to stash it and go back next day with the Gator to get it. Badger was going to buck me off for sure if I tried to pack it home behind the saddle.

Re: Sheds
That moose one is great. I know a State Park Ranger that collects sheds. He has about a hundred of them from the park and other areas.

Re: Sheds
I saw the mate to it but it was right out in the middle of a horse swallowing bog. No way to get it. I have an elk one that was stuck in a tree.

Re: Sheds
Nice! Around here you have to be quick to find the Deer sheds. The mice and other little critters chew them up quickly.

Re: Sheds
We use the moose shed to hide the stereo and TV wires in the living room. Maybe not where that moose intended it to end up.

Re: Sheds
A guy who used to work at a ranch where I was doing day work told me that they pulled a buffalo skull out of a washed out creek bank. I never saw it but what a find that would be.

Re: Sheds
I really like the bronze horse statuette in the Moose Antler picture.
A few years ago, a coyote left this in our front yard. It's been mummifying on a garden post behind the watergarden ever since. Not exactly a shed, but it does add a certain je ne sais quoi as a dark totem in our otherwise vibrant landscaping.

Re: Sheds
It kinda stares right at you. We hear coyotes at night all the time here. Every winter we get wolf tracks in the yard. Lots of deer around our place all the time but I never find any sheds at home.

Re: Sheds
CT_shooter, that pic reminds me of a surprise I found here in my woods 8 years ago when we first moved in. Hanging from a tree limb off the beaten path I came upon three similarly desiccated deer skulls. Really kind of startled me. Apparently the previous landowner had hung them there for some reason and forgot about them.
Made for a rather macabre first woods walk.
