Sounds like someone is starving. Really no other reason for that unless you were interrupted while cutting.

Theres $600 or $700.00 lost for the rancher. If the carcass wasn't properly bled out by the scumbag poacher, the remaining meat would not be much good anyway.

The real sad part is--that beef was worth 1200 dollars not so long ago. It isn't worth feeding them any more.

If the rest of the meat was still edible why would it be given to the Sally Ann? I'd be thinking it would go into my freezer if it were mine.
