Unique Internet Buck photo with another Buck’s rack stuck in his rack

I’m no AI expert…IMO it doesn’t look like AI to me.

But more to the point, the photos I posted are actually my snapshots from a video of this Buck moving through.
The original video is at the Facebook ID I left at the bottom of one of the photos.
 
I have seen similar photos many years ago but in today's world we can't trust every photo anymore. The ones I have known of were bucks that got locked together and coyotes devoured the weaker or already dead buck eating everything up to the neck/ head. This picture differs only in that the face bones of the skull are missing which is something coyotes would do to a dead deer in the woods but not when hung on another buck as the stronger buck would leave the coyotes as soon as the bulk of the dead buck was severed. I suppose it would be possible that the deer found a deer skull and oddly worked his rack against the skull and it got stuck that way but that seems like something that might happen maybe once in a thousand years. Looking at the skull here it doesn't seem like it would even stay locked to the buck to me.

Wouldn't coyotes just eat both deer?. I mean, if I see a buck dragging around a dead one, I'm going for the live one to score a twofer :D. And I thought coyotes were sooooo smart;)
 
Call me a skeptic also.

Just seems unlikely that either locked buck would survive all of the elements in the wild to the point that the carcass would rot away or be eaten by predators. The live buck would be easy pickins for any predator capable of taking down deer size prey. Just hard to imagine one surviving such an ordeal.

The video does look real so I guess my question is more about how the 2nd rack got tangled up with the live deer. With all of the social media whores and outfitters trying to get an edge out there now, I certainly would not put it past someone staging such for all of the clicks it will get.
