I agree with the previous posts regarding personal choice. I can only say that I did it a few times, but the one time changed my mindset, so I tend not to do it. The time that stays in my brain, involved a similar situation. I took a big doe with two small fawns and as I was retrieving her, the two small fawns kept coming back, looking and calling for her. Honestly, probably the worst that has happended to me in the field. The sight of those fawns looking for her was/is an image that still plays in my mind. Again, this may never happen to anyone or has happened to someone. It may not bother some, but it was enough to make me look at the situation differently. I guess it is personal choice/standards and I dont't know if there is a right/wrong way of looking at it..

Stay Safe...
