Cholame 746 California Condor Eben McMillan 10 June 1964 Cholame Ranch headquarters. When I last saw it, A lone Buzzard was circling one mile south of Cholame Ranch buildings at 5:00 p.m. one half mile SE of the foot of Lecompte Grade I saw the bodies of two deer lying close by the roadside. One deer had been be-headed. The other had been slashed open in the throat. The bones of both were mangled. One carcass, a doe, the one that had its head on, was intact. The other headless one had three skinned out deer legs lying near it while it had, at least two of its own legs intact. It appeared to me that someone had dumped those Carcasses here and the additional legs along with them. Although flies were blowing these deer carcasses already nothing had eaten on them. Probably Too near the roadway and Too much to eat everywhere. Home at 5:30 p.m. Sky cleared some in evening and it was warmer. I might add that Mrs. Marvin Jones went to great detail today to tell me how much trouble they are put to in policing hunters the first weekend of Deer season on the Christie Ranch Property. It seems she and her husband drive up on the high mountain west of the ranch house the morning of the first week of Deer season well before daylight. She said that they can look and see lights all over the Country converging onto their property to hunt deer. She said the hunters are impossible to keep out so the best they can do is to watch for flies the hunters might set. Mrs. Jones said these hunters shoot everything that moves.
