No. The hide was completely rubbed out on both sides. In the 9 days between the live picture of her alone to the day we shot her she had completely rubbed out both sides of her hide. She still had a good 5 inches along her back. She would've been a beaut just a few days earlier.

Oh well, she'll still taste great!
