......in that little cub's mouth? Pay attention from the 7-10 second mark as he enters from the left of the frame and exits to the right. Video taken by a coworker in the last week, date stamp is incorrect.

What does "Cuban" reference? Is that his name, because there is no such thing as a Cuban Fox?

My coworker lives in Cuba, TN. I thought it was a turkey wing as well, just wanted to see what the consensus was among you guys.
 
Certainly has the look of a turkey wing.

I suspect, if we actually knew,
we'd be shocked how many turkeys are "fired upon" (often presumed missed)
by us turkey hunters, only to die unrecovered by the shooter.

Just think how many people have shot at 3 or 4 turkeys already this season,
but only come home with 1 or 2.

The actual human hunter turkey kill not only includes those not checked in,
but also those which go off and die, sometimes days later, from a single pellet to the gut.
Our TWRA "harvest" data is just good trend data, maybe not even that anymore.
 
Of course, not to say this particular turkey wing wasn't just left in the woods
by a hunter after he tele-checked in his bird, filleted out the breast,
and discarded the non-edible remains :)
 
I agree with LBLman that it's a turkey wing from a discarded carcass. I would bet over 90% of carcasses from legal kills end up in the woods for the cleanup crew of coyotes, foxes and buzzards.
