not quite a partridge in  a pear is it?

I can image what it would be like at my place on the morning of the 25th.

Looks like someone used it to make soup!

Good question, Dave. No concerns from me. The paw was mostly intact so I doubt poachers.  I gave a quick look around but no other parts were evident. Lots of black bear activity in the area; I was seeing half eaten chum and game trails all afternoon. I suspect the carcass was dumped nearby by legitimate hunters, or it got hit by a vehicle, or even natural causes, but my spider senses weren’t going off.

most likely hit by a car and died after crawling away from the crash site. I have seen that before.
