It looks like it could be a young carabo(sp) or a rain deer.

| Ditto. The horns are about right, the skeleton's right, and the hooves have the round-toed shape of a caribou/reindeer. The terrain looks like tundra, too. It's tough to tell the difference between caribou and reindeer, though, without more developed horns. |

| After examining ::-k the photo using the most recent and technologically advanced photo examination tools from both NASA, Google, and the CIA I have determined that the photo is indeed black and white, or color challenged for the PC types, and it represents a dead three legged deer. |

| So JT given your expert dignosis do you believe that it was the genetic fact that said deer (Bou) was 3 legged, this was the "Darwineon survival of the fittest" reason for demise? |

I plugged in this question to all three sources but only google would offer an answer.
I appears that NASA,s Photo Examination Software is currently unavailable due to massive usage examining the Moon Collision exercise.Still no answer on whether there was water found.
The CIA software would neither confirm nor deny it's very own existence.
They did release the following statement: "The dead animal shown on the submitted photo did not meet it's demise as a result of "enhanced interrogation" by this agency".
Google says that "yes it is possible that this animals death was a result of "Survival of the Fittest" scenario. Based on evidence obtained from the photo, it would appear to us that the deer(Bou) tripped on the small stone visible near the hind end. Having only three legs it could not get itself back up off of the ground where it most probably laid there until it starved to death as evidenced by it's ribs clearly showing thru it's hide".
I would be inclined to go with Googles explanation, however due to the dead animals close proximity to the ocean(seen in the background) I can not rule out a Shark or Orca attack. |

| OK...the cat's out of the bag. It's a DARPA initiative to develop tripod ungulates that will serve as an alternative food source for polar bears. This will not only put to rest claims that the species is dwindling (which it's not, but who cares about facts anyway), but will also lure polar bears away from littoral areas that can then be developed for oil production. |

| Actually the leg you see on the far side is pinned and cannot bend so she is really a 2 legged dog with a kick stand (keeps her from falling down when she stops! |
