He's tattooing her ears. The green dye will stay in the tattoo

This is a deer kill that was seen by some of the group. This
deer was NOT killed by a puma, but probably by bobcats or coyotes.
Pumas cache (sounds like "cash") their prey, which means they hide it.
They may hide it under a tree like the juniper at the right, or scatter
something over the top of it. Once they are temporarily full they
will leave it cached and then return to the kill at another time. |
