Horse Skeleton Ft. Bridger, WY

Further excursions into macabre taphonomy can be seen in my DA "Paleo & Sci Illo" gallery:

This is the jewel in the crown of a bizarre Golgotha of animal remains that I encountered near a reservoir outside the small cow town of Ft. Bridger, Wyoming. A person or persons unknown has been dumping animal carcasses on this site. In addition to this horse, there are the skins and skeletal remains of deer, elk, antelope, raccoons and at least one coyote. The game animals were most likely poached for their meat and disposed of. This is a felony in the State of Wyoming. This is essentially the dump site of victims of a serial killer.
