RE: Question about being legal or ethical
well, What did superstrutter decide to do?
myself personally, I would have shot and put it out of it's misery if it was in that much pain. I have shot a small yearling a couple years back after learning it had 2 badly broken legs. I believe it was chased from a cliff and fell. It was just laying there and tried getting up to run when I approached. It was the best thing to do and if I had to make the same decision again I would shoot again.
