I have seen scars like that on old unmarked bulls from a station in the territory that is only 2 paddocks.
trying to drive these cattle on horseback proved futile as they would just stand and shake, then charge you.
and they had horns.
we ended up sending the dogs around the other side of them, and they chased the dogs up into the yards at the now defunct Adelaide abattoirs.
the point is bovines do not cut or scar easily, and must sustain something pretty serious to cause this.
yet again you share an interesting observance ben.

Cheers! My guess is he lost his footing in a fight and got caned. I’ve seen a lot of barbed wire scratches on buffalo and they’re similar to how our legs get scratched by the grass.

when you think about it, his last few days were not an all out success.

Hello! I saw your post from last year about a missing crate from your hunt in Moz. I am curious how that all turned out? We (my fiancé and I) also hunted in Moz in 2024 and the trophies are being shipped with Hunters Services Limitada. We have some concerns on whether we will get the trophies home or not. May I ask who you hunted with?
