C.S.I. Ranch Style

Crime Scene Investigation down on the farm.
The case of the missing halter.

The victim.

Wildairo was found wandering around butt naked and disheveled. Closer inspection revealed he was missing his break-away halter.

I was hot on the case. Wildairo followed me around acting really crazy,' probably traumatized by his ordeal,' I first thought. Several times he raced off bucking (with sound effects) and galloping about like he'd gone insane. One time he almost slammed into the rock wall. (Note to self; change their feed).

Conclusion.
Wildairo was innocently having a good scratch on this old dead tree, when it leaped out and grabbed his halter. Lucky for us Wildairo was wearing a break-away halter so he was able to run like hell and leave the tree with it's prize. Break-away halters really do break-away.

That's funny! Good thing he had a breakaway halter though, or it might not have been funny...

Boy, I bet my horses would love to have an old root ball like that to scratch on.
