Great find!

Since when did buffaloes get leg amputations? Oh wait, wasn't there that buffalo that got its leg amputated in 1937......?

Those darn buffaloes have all sorts of issues! I was keeping an eye out for a speared buffalo, and ran across this one.

Another example of die abrasion given a cute name to get someone to collect it.

Oh well, I enjoy finding something different. Besides, if someone wants to collect something, I'll be glad to sell it to them!

Yes, a true detached. Notice the area behind the front right leg, another abrasion. Ken Potter has pics somewhere,
but I'm in a hurry.
