It's not typically a bad group of people in that group, atleast not in years past. Im.sure this PCR deal has brought some out of the woodwork though...
Oh and it can't be THAT bad, my kid is the cover photo of the group 😉

Basically these two guys posted a video of a big buck they had shot. They came up on it and it was still alive they were dropping f bombs and laughing about it how "that mother trucker" is still alive etc. Then they put two arrows in it way after legal light with a flashlight. Just totally disrespectful and of course the pics they posted eventually were in the back of the truck beer cans all over the place. Hunter sticking out his tongue and posing like a teenage girl. All sounds petty but if you saw the video it would leave you shaking your head.

The part that gets me is this is what they put on video. imagine what goes on when the camera is not rolling.

It does raise a question.. if you shot a deer in the evening and found it and it wasn't dead do you: 1) Shoot it and kill it? 2) Back out and leave it until morning hoping it will be dead or if it isn't shoot it then? Quandary?

I once had a landowner meet me at my vehicle at dark after I'd spent the evening hunting on his property. He said that there was a gut shot deer on the other side of the farm and asked me to finish it off with my muzzleloader. I went with him, but refused to shoot it after dark. Instead, I ran it down and grabbed it by a rear leg, which resulted in the deer spinning all around me like a junebug on a string. I finally tackled it and slit its throat. It wasn't pretty, but I couldn't let it suffer anymore.

All I've ever done if you have one still alive is punture the lungs with your knife, they expire quickly and humanely. Thats assuming they aren't kicking and thrashing about.

It wasn't pretty, but I couldn't let it suffer anymore. I would never do that. A guy died a few years ago in Indiana trying to finish one with knife. I think it was a state park hunt. Sometimes you have to do the ethical thing and not necessarily the lawful thing. Many years ago I was hunting geese and my friend went over the limit because he got two with one shot. The bird was injured and couldn't fly. I went back later and finished it off because he wouldn't. Legal no, ethical yes. By the way I don't think there is a knife season so maybe that's illegal also.

I won't leave an animal to suffer over night.
I crawled up on 1 of our bowkills last year,late at night, and found it still breathing. I took a short video just to show as proof of the deer being down, arrow still in it but alive. The next day I let the processor know why they were going to find an extra hole in it and also mentioned it to the property manager in case there were any reports of noises after dark.
There are ways to handle it ethically and not make a fool out of hunters like those guys did on FB.

There are situations Im willing to explain my actions for. Hope for understanding but take whatever lumps the LEO might give me.
Coming across a deer hit on a roadway and suffering but not yet dead.
Finding a mortally wounded but not yet dead deer after shooting and tracking him.
Im sure there are more.

I also do not like to leave a dead or serious wounded deer over night I learned my lesson some years ago bow hunting. It was at the last 15 minutes on light and I took a doe and tracked it 50 yards to find her. I field dressed it, but did not drag it out. I hurt my back in the field dressing process. My brother was not home until morning so I let the doe lay, just 100 yards from the house. The next morning the doe was there, but only a little bit. The yotes had a field day that night.

It happened at Chain-O-Lakes State Park. I heard it was a ruptured liver or kidney.

Quandary? I'd have to kill it quickly and put it's out of it's misery. I once had to leave a deer along the side of the highway in a ditch as I was late to work and the deer ran out in front of my company vehicle I was driving and hit the front of my vehicle. I was without any gun and late for a job and had to leave it there to die. If I had a gun I would have shot it in the head and put it away to ease it's pain. But I can still hear the bleeting of that deer when I think about this. You can't leave a wounded animal out there to die. That's wanton waste. I just hope that the IDNR CO's feel the same way and that I never have to make that type of decision.
