He’s dead and someone possibly took a werd whacker to his abdomen post mortem.

I know,looks like someone used a hatchet or something.
Whatever it was,looks like it got the job done.

My guess would be Oregon harvest coming home.

Life size taxidermy bull.
Guna put a bunch of predator mounts around it to display a realistic view of Washington game management.

My brother said folks on Facebook are claiming the guy salvaged it from Hanford area still.

A bull this size I’m sure they will take the head but the meats fair game.

My observations on the photo based on all the roadkills I’ve salvaged are.
There is no blood on the trailer on the deck behind the elk so I doubt it was a roadkill.
Everyone I’ve have picked up and drove down a side logging road and gutted then drug back on the truck had a bloody slide mark and hair stuck to the bed of the truck and tailgate. Unless they had a crane to lift it on and off, but there still would be blood running out of the chest cavity and down the boards.When I zoom in it almost looks like the chest cavity blood is dark like it was hung open for a couple days.
It almost looks as if predators ate on it and it is a few days old maybe.

I had thought the whole reason for the points question was to confiscate trophy animals to discourage hitting animals on purpose. Interesting. Good to know for the future I guess lol
