Author's comments:
El ejemplar sabía de la presencia humana, no parecía molestarle el ruido de los autos que pasaban a menos de 10 metros, solo se limitó a acercarse, se sentó a pocos metros del auto y luego se escondió entre los yuyos. Muy probablemente venía a alimentarse de los restos ya casi inexistentes de lo que parecía ser un ternero muerto, lo único que quedaba eran mechones y algún que otro hueso desperdigado.
