Weird elk
« on: February 20, 2013, 05:06:49 AM »
Found a unique 2pt elk shed on monday and it reminded me of a 3pt i found 2 years prior about 5 miles away. Almost looks like it could be a match but i know its not. Definatly related, what do you guys think?

Looks to be a winter kill and skull split off

The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

I doubt it, I've found a few spike looking elk sheds with branched tops and base turn downs like that. I dont think its to uncommon.
