Over the Hedge by T Lewis and Michael Fry for November 04, 2021

It has a downside of him being unable to possibly breed, but an upside he probably will not be hunted this season.

You will thank hoomans one day.

AT least the out-of-control humans got the tire off his neck…

At least these antlers typically gets shed and then “regrown” each year anyway.

Edgar the tire had to go . RJ pounding down Twinkies is not out of control ?

Edgar, Edgar, Edgar……Michelin is so out of fashion this year!

We were tired of watching you lug that thing around.

Elks got thumbs!

It’s obvious why they had to get that tire off, it was the wrong size

Couldn’t figure out why they cut the antlers off, when they could have cut the tire, I mean the elk was already tranquilized, so….

they could have taken the whole head

They’ll grow back.

I hope that they catch the guys who hung that tire on him. Hooligans!

From Colorado where this happened, wildlife folks said that their tools couldn’t cut through the steel radial. So taking the antlers off was their only alternative

I read something last week about another animal (moose I think) that got caught in a swingset and had a similar outcome.

Time to put on the winter tire.

Better than what happened to a bear that had his head stuck in a plastic jar & ended up being euthanized instead of tranquilized to get the jar off its head.

At least he survived the experience!

I wonder if people know who and why this sort of things happens? It is done by “environmentalists” who try to make game animals less attractive to “trophy” hunters looking for larger racks in their hunts.

The photo is a good likeness of Edgar.

Think about all the elk heads in the elk lodges free of tires.

I believe they only had to remove the antler on one side.
