Deer remains in Cedar Canyon Nature Park

Walking just off the paved path in Cedar Canyon Nature Park around 3:30 on Monday, August 28th 2017, I saw a severed deer leg. The leg was lying in the sage brush area near the base of a hill, approximately 100 meters from a small creek. After observing the leg I also observed in its proximity, what looked like two jaw bones including teeth. I was thinking that there are mostly 2 likely reasons that would put the remains in this situation. The first reason being a predator, and the second being a hunter who left the remains behind. There were no immediate observable signs of predator in the area, so the hunter scenario seems most likely.
