I aint gettin on your case for shootin jacks and not eating them, but I dont want new or potential hunters to get the wrong idea that hunter kill anyhting for the hell of it. If you kill a jack here and leave it you could be fined since they are a game animal. I dont hunt them until after a couple of hard freezes anyway. The ones I got monday didnt have fleas, but the ones from a few months ago shure did. EJ
