I really don’t think one can say a hunter caused this being elk just went thru the rut. He could have sustained his injury due to the rut.

The pics don’t show any evidence of what the problem is.

Possibly caused by rut activity…possibly had covid…or possibly someone lost a bull.

That's a weird one. Doesn't look that old. I would think if it was rut or hunter related you'd think you'd see something.

They watched it die. They are non hunters but said there was a “bullet hole” in its hind quarters.

Well until they dig a slug out who knows, possibly a puncture wound from the rut.

Being it is in water,(if this is where I beleive it is) always a possibility it was hit by a vehicle.

If anyone lost a colockum bull… I found one too… judging by the age of the carcass it died around archery season. Yes it could have been a cougar or natural causes but it was in a popular area. Send me a pm with the location and how many points it had and I can send you a waypoint.
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

If it was lost by a hunter, hopefully they can be reconnected with their trophy. Sure is a nice bull.

What a weird thread. d_wilson posted that someone found a dying bull and asked if anybody lost one.

Lost, suffering elk is pretty darn negative.

I do believe the OP had good intentions.

And if someone from the tribe lost it, maybe this will help find it. That's all that he's trying to do.

Remember the black bear videos used to close dog hunting?

Now the pics that animal right activists want to shut down hunting can be gotten off a hunting site. People can post but leave the pics out. :twocents:

I saw the wound.  It could easily been a horn or muzzy round.  It was in the gut.  It was in the Mission unit as well.

Bummer.
Pictures of suffering animals are never good but suffering humans seems to be OK in today's world.
