Jonjon79 13,358 Posted August 11, 2018 Report Share Posted August 11, 2018 I've never had that happen but, at a guess, I'd say the pellet impact has caused internal damage and pressure which has dislodged some part of its anatomy. ....... If that is the case, that bit could look different to how you'd expect because of the damage. Olfactory lobe? Quote Link to post
Rez 4,957 Posted August 11, 2018 Report Share Posted August 11, 2018 I’d second what Jon says. Proper sign of a decent head shot that. I haven’t had clotting like that myself on shot game mind. Was it left sometime before pick up? On another note... it’s not for the table is it? Perhaps think twice about that particular bugs. Quote Link to post
Benn McIntyre 48 Posted August 11, 2018 Report Share Posted August 11, 2018 Just a sign of a great shot, I had one do similar today! No photo of the clot itself unfortunately Quote Link to post

I reckon it'd be fine to eat mate - yes, that's an odd thing to fall out of it's head but, if the liver's good, I'd eat it Quote Link to post

Lee.m 142 Posted August 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2018 Hi guys just thought I would put up photo of what I had. I was there for an hour and a half before it started to pour down. So here they are. 3 Quote Link to post
Deker 3,478 Posted August 14, 2018 Report Share Posted August 14, 2018 Who knows from a picture, but it does look like some sort of a blood clot, and the look of the ear would back that up. The eye of the rabbit looks mixxy as well, that could have something to do with it! 1 Quote Link to post
Underdog 2,337 Posted August 14, 2018 Report Share Posted August 14, 2018 Just blood filled the ear then congealed. Quite normal. Quote Link to post
