RE: What would you do
What is this a trick question? our statement that it will die in a couple of months bothers me. Maybe it will due to hardship of winter or predertor. But it is neither here nor there what it's furture is. I get really upset with people that think it's ok to violate the game laws especially under the assumption that they know what is best for the animal in question. Of course you pass it up. If you don't you are just another poacher, and I am afriad that we have too many out there already.
It is never OK to shoot an animal out of season without the proper permits to do so..
