Skunkterd,Its not ammo for the antis. Mother nature can be cruel. If youll read my post above, I didnt have a gun. Also if you will look at the picture , the deer is very much alert and mobile. Maybe I should have called a warden? I dont know. The buck wasnt about to stand there and wait for the warden . The area is thick cedars. The warden would have had to either sit on the water or track it up the following morning. He might have been willing , who knows? The fact is , this was a chance encounter with a doomed buck. If you spend much time in the hills, sooner or later you will run into sad situations. A year earlier while hunting we come upon a nice buck caught in a barbed wire fence. We turned him loose but he was to far gone to survive. We called the warden and he ended his suffering. Ive rescued a couple of deer out of fences through the years and yes I've finished off one in the Highway.If I would have had a gun I would have ended his suffering.The point of the post was to remind people to take care when hunting sheds. Deer are vulnreble any time but they really need thier space this time of year. I really dont see what this has to do with the anties, it seems that they dont mind suffering if its due to natural causes.Thier fairly warped.
