While I'll usually drag deer away from my stand site before gutting them, I have shot 2 deer in my life that were actually sniffing gut piles when i shot them. One Buck and one Doe. The area I was hunting was only 14 acres with a house on it, so there was little choice but to gut the deer in the small part of it I could hunt. Both deer were sniffing gut piles from a Doe at the time.
