That there was caused by the very rare Great Horned Sasquatch.

Porcupine gnawed on it is my guess.

Bigfoot
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

This happened right in front of my trail cam, I have the culprit on video.  I just wanted to see what you guys thought it was.

Oh and it is none of the above.  Bear peals are usually lower,  porkeys are cleaner. And Bigfoot will just tear the tree down.

That's it,   I had always thought it was bull elk rubbing the trees to cause that damage.
