A big Lion set free

[quote="Brent Sinclair"]We first captured this tom March 2010 .
His collar quit working Sept. 30 /2010 and we figured he had possiable been killed as his home range was very consistant...and we never found his track again .


This is why his collar quit, a canine puncture likely from a female...it never damaged the battery but allowed moisture to get into the unit and causing it to short out or drain the battery power?
If you look close you can see the screws holding the unit together are bent and the case also has some gouges from teeth as well.
