Default RE: Single lung shot
I once read that a deer's lungs are 2 separate pieces; as opposed to a human's, which are conntected. Hence why a single lung-shot deer can take time to expire. Anyone ever hear of this? I'm at work.....I can't look this up
Actually, I believe there deer's lungs are chambered like a humans. Humans can survive on one lung. Somemammal are not however andif one lungis punctured, they both will collapse.
