Default How long does it take for an animal to spoil?

Our archery season here in Colorado starts next weekend and the temps. can fluctuate pretty dramatically. If in theory you thought you had a gut shot and waited the 8 hrs. or more, then when you recovered the animal you found out that it had probably died many, many hours previous in say 70 degree weather could you safely eat the meat? What is an indicator that it isn't okay to eat?
