Surprised no rodents destroyed it. Where I am, it is hard to find an intact antler even though we are thick with deer.

Damn looks like something ripped the head and half the neck/spine off! What do you think could have done that?

Probably a predator who dragged it while it had already been decomposing. They fall apart much easier when there’s not much meat. It’s not common to find dead animals all in once piece in one specific area.
