A few days ago, I invited readers to share their thoughts about the above photo. Responses here and ones I otherwise received speculated this situation was the result of humans persecuting animals, a giant shrike or other predator taking advantage of a barbed wire fence, even witchcraft (see comment section below). Let me share the specific facts as I heard them, biological facts as I've learned them, and unmask this story of predators.
That is a bobcat carcass hanging on a barbed wire fence. I did not stage that photo. It is exactly how I found it.
