Here’s the video I put together from a game cam at Birchbank after I witnessed a deer fall down the hill and break its neck. It’s mostly from the 7th night. All the prior video got deleted for some reason, although I have the still photos and can see what visited (possum, vulture, and coyote at a distance).  It seems like the coyotes had their eye on the carcass for a couple days, but it wasn’t until shortly after a bobcat visited at length that they dragged the carcass further down the hill and began to disassemble it. I suspect they cached parts of it here and there.
