i know this has been disscused over and over....but.... i stuck one tonight. about half hour to sunset. which was about 40 min ago. i heard it hit, i saw the deer run, kinda like a scared dog. it stopped behind a bush and stood for about five min, then walked up the hill in the feild and then stopped for a bit, then walked into the tree line. i walked over to where it stood and found blood, alot of it. not bubbly or anything. just blood followed it for a about 10 yards. and i stopped cuz it was getting dark, puls i didnt want to jump it. its only about a 5 min walk form my back door. what should i do from here? should i wait another three hours? oh, and as i was walking back to my house, i saw a fox that looked like it wanted to stick its teeth in my neck. do fox eat deer? i know ther are no coyotes around here.

also, temp tonight is low of 42

P.S. is it normal to panic and think you' ll never find it?
