Elk hoof rot up close

There's been a lot of interest in my elk photo showing the hoof rot,the photo has been in several newspapers in the state so I thought I would show a closeup of the hoof.

Sorry about the lack of photos for several weeks, but with all the wind and rain,plus trying to get some work done around the house when the rain dies down a little, I just haven't had the time. I have been working on several new cameras and hope to try a few ideas out with added flash.
