It's all part of hunting, and just another lesson to be learned in life...........that is, if you hunt.
So, consider yourself lucky - non hunters never get to experience the close "relationship" we were originally intended to play in the balance of nature.
It's how you conducted yourself after the shot that really counts..............
I think you can sleep well my friend.
Enjoy your time in the great outdoors.......................it's what life is really all about !
