Anti Poaching, at the Sharp end...

@BRICKBURN , we spotted the trap by seeing an eagle feeding on the duikers lips, didn't make any friends when I told them to leave the duiker for the eagle...

Did you check the smoker later that evening. I'll bet there was some new Duiker appendages on the pile.

This poor duiker stood in small gin trap and as things happen, it got even worse for the duiker, ended up in a bigger trap.View attachment 160815

Makes me quite happy we only have to deal with snares and hunters. Those things are brutal.

Could be our Zambian version of concrete shoes for the poachers...

What leg? Probably loose whatever was inside the jaws!
