LAST EDITED ON Apr-05-04 AT 07:59PM (MST)[p]I was shed hunting in colorado this last week with a couple of friends. I came across a cow elk stuck in the mud in a deep ravine. She had been there for atleast a day maybe more. She was exhausted. Myself and two friends pulled on her front feet and completely got here out of the mud and onto the bank where she could have stood up if she had the strength. She appeared to be very hungry and even though she couldnt get up, she still tried to eat what was under her nose. Well, I picked some grass from under the sage brush and offered it to her. She ate it very quikly. I fed her for a while and she would eat right out of my hand. All the while I was questioning weather or not to let nature take it course. Deep down I just could not leave her there without knowing she would get up. Myself and 2 friends feed here for a while and then left her. She must have got up after we left, because she was gone the next morning. What would you do?????
