I arrived around 7:30am. It's the best time to go mushroom picking before other people get there and find the best mushrooms before me. I embarked on a trail that I had not explored yet. I noticed a dark mass in the middle of the path about 60 meters away but I could not tell what it was. I thought it was a tree stump. I started walking while looking at the floor. I picked up some mushrooms. And I kept going, until I got up and looked in front of me. I tried to understand what I saw. It was not a tree stump. It was obviously an animal curled up on itself, muzzle resting on the chest. The posture was very strange. It looked like someone crouching. He slept with his muzzle on his chest. His coat was black gray like that of a boar but darker and above all, it was not a wild boar. I know what a boar looks like, my companion being a hunter.

At the end of October 2019 La Dépêche News reported that the golden retriever belonging to a family living near Agen returned with a human head in its mouth after leaving the home for its daily wander. The dog must have detached the skull from a decomposing body to play with and returned to the home with the human head in its mouth. Investigators made a formal statement and explained “This forty-something man died at the place where he was found by the gendarmes, without his head. There are no suspicious circumstances reported"
