Wild turkeys, fish, and an interesting skull

Yesterday we had a nice group of wild turkeys out in the pasture, I have seen quite a few lately.

For the last two weeks we have seen folks fishing along the Emory river near us.  Apparently there is world class striped bass fishing nearby on the Clinch river system and it's tributaries.  A friend also said that the state releases trout upstream of us near Frozen Head and they can be caught here also.

Yesterday Mary was out riding her horse and she came back with a skull she found in the upper pasture that had curved tusks sticking out from the upper jaw.

I know that there are wild hogs in the nearby Catoosa WMA, but we have not seen any on the farm.  Mary said she did not see any other remains where she found the skull, so I'm not sure what it is or where it came from.
