Just 100 or so yards from my back door.
Eatin size 4 point I just made into 25 pounds of 5 different kinds of jerky.
Went back a day later and Nothing is there... nothing,
No Bones no hide no Nothing..just a brown spot where they didn't eat the dirt.
Looks like I fed the Hood real good.

Side Note; As I was making all this jerky I kept looking at my commercial grade Deep Fryer so I fried a batch . Gave it a taste test and fried 15 more pounds , right then.
Takes like 4 to 5 hours in the Dehydrator and 5 minutes in the fryer.
A whole bunch easier to clean as well.
If you try it don't put the strips on the wire basket because they will embed into it and you'll need a putty knife to get them out.
Just drop them into the hot oil. 5 minutes or less...good Stuff.

I remember watching a carcass disappear in the big cypress years ago. Friday afternoon there was a full dog laying on his back, hair shed off lying around it and probably died the night before. That evening it was gutted. That Saturday it turned to bones and some flesh. When we left sunday there may have been a bone or two in the spot.

Amazing how fast buzzards can clear a gut pile.

And......if there are eagles about they will own the pile until they are trough, the buzzards relegated to sulking around the periphery......

Hey TRT,
Skunk Ape. Right There just 90 yards or so from your back door.Inching Closer!!
Years ago, a Miami Chamber Of Commerce Official was "discovered" well west of Miami , a simple canal scene, face down in the sweet dark water,apparently gasping on a Florida Souvenier Rubber Alligator. As noted by Miami Herald/Fiction Writer Carl Hiassen.
The Chamber Official never did leave the Non Miami Wild Lands,apparently Transformed. Eventually linked up with "Skink"; Florida Governor Lawton Chiles,suppossedly keeled over/dead on an excercise bike. Lawton ended up in deep South Florida Wilderness,mostly on his own volition, and thanks to certain events began wearing an activated Panther tracking collar.
it might be Skunk Ape or Governor Chiles at your doorstep.
It could be worse if you lived Elsewhere in Florida.
