WAUSHARA COUNTY, WI (WTAQ) – A dead animal found hanging in a tree earlier this week in Waushara County has been identified.
According to DNR wildlife experts, the animal is a shot and skinned coyote.
Authorities say the coyote was found on land owned by the Wisconsin DNR in the Town of Leon Monday.
The coyote was placed there within 24 hours of its discovery, authorities believe.
Although it’s open season for coyotes in Wisconsin, officials are still concerned with how the animal was displayed in public.
