Appropriate title ! Sad, but very true.

Interesting shots, Kurt. Strange how all the tortoise shells came to be together. (Or, did you arrange them like that?) Also, you wonder what happened to the coyote. Might have been attacked by something larger. A sick one will usually hole up somewhere.

Guess you aren't getting a lot of snow this winter.

Hi Stan
The tortoise shells are as we found them, but I highly suspect there was some human intervention before we got there. We found a total of 7 shells.
The coyote was strange, looked young no sign of injury. Maybe it choked on a tortoise shell:lol:
