[QUOTE="Andy S., post: 5150825, member: 131"] Jcalder - my main concern is respect for the animal. There is no way in good conscious I could have allowed that buck to lay there and rot and become "[I]coyote food[/I]" after I deliberately shot it and took it's life, but that is my perspective. I realize mine and MANY others' perspectives do not align. With that said, I would have fought tooth and nail to recover it in a timely manner and not been satisfied with the local Ranger's "decision" until I exhausted all of my options. I realize the outcome would have likely been the same, but I would have elevated it until I could not any more. Purely out of respect for the animal and because it is the right thing to do. I would rather the State retrieve it and keep it, than let it rot. [/QUOTE]
