Possibly another hunter like yourself who shot and maimed the animal because the shot was too cool not to take and then couldn’t find it so it just died for no good reason. Just a theory though

Nice hunt. It is hard to say without a closer look, but I would guess it got sick or something internally from what little I saw it did not look like any animals, besides the bugs of course, were dining on it and might have been staying away because they sensed something was off with it. . If it was just shot, I would venture to say something might have tried to dine on a free meal, but who knows.
