Awesome rare find. Generally the local wildlife like mice, skunks, racoons eat up the antlers quickly. I've found carcasses with antlers gnawed off.
Any idea if buck was a roadkill or one that was wounded by a hunter and died?
Was skull near body or away, suggesting coyote activity on the decease?

Were there more than 7 bullet holes?
Could not find the carcass, guessing an early bow season loss by the bleached antlers.
I've got a few more similar that we're never touched by rodents, have sheds that were though. Yes we have plenty of coyotes here, I imagine he was ripped apart and dragged around until the all got some.

Here's 3 more I found through the years, these all during spring turkey season, no chew marks.
This set of sheds was found during spring turkey also, found them about two weeks apart, the chewed one in the woods, the other I found only 30 or so yards away but only after they worked the corn field up, no chew marks, just a gouge from the disc.
