The Nastiest animal you have gutted?

Cleaned a road kill whitetail a buddy of mine hit on his way into work. Good hot sticky July day. I could smell it on my hands for days.

Thats gotta stink inside
 
I had no idea we had Bot Flys here in the US, always thot they came from SA or somewhere. Aparently the rabbit wolves ARE bot fly larvae, nasty buggers. Just never really thot about what they were.
 
Caribou are nasty. They're kind of "pressurized" somehow... within a minute or two after being killed, the stomach contents start expanding like crazy. If you don't make your first cut to open the abdomen complete, the stomach will force its way out of any spot it can get through, like a water balloon squeezed in your hand, making it almost impossible not to knick it later on. And if you do knick it, all the half-digested lichens, etc. start being extruded through the hole like wet Play-Dough.


Anything with a previous wound that's infected or full of parasites is REALLY nasty. One of my buddies shot a beautiful buck during rifle season several years ago. When he got it opened up, it was nasty inside... infected. When he reached in to pull out the guts, he laid his hand wide open on a broadhead that was inside the deer. It had been hit by a bowhunter and survived, with the arrow breaking off and the outside of the wound healing up. I figured he'd be dead in a day or two, but he's still around! ;)

gutshot pig

I been butchering game sine as far back as I can remember , but this time , Id camped out at a friends property , and they had another friend drop by , who was a military nut ... way over top kinda guy

I went my way and got me a pig , shot went thru his shoulder , and out near the opposite side rear leg

while I was cleaning it , I was thinking about the guy who had been talking night before and his over the top desire to do similar damages to other people ....

the gutting was nasty , it was way way worse for the mind food I was digesting at the time tho
 
...why would you skin a porcupine?

And I'm always afraid of stubbing my toe on bear rugs.
 
2 years ago, my friend over-compensated for the year before when he spent many hours looking for his deer, by shooting the deer of that year, 3 times.

He shoots a .338 Win Mag.

The cavity looked as if someone had run a boat motor through it for a minute or two.

Only parts of some organs were easily identifiable.

The top of one lung, half the heart, etc....

Mostly though, the contents of the cavity had been pulped and churned up into a bloody green and red slurry.

Not nice.
