And I'll still see 15 on the drive home every night.
Buddy hit one on Wednesday and I had to go and fix his exhaust. Wife hit a carcass on the freeway on Thursday. I've replaced 2 windshields on our vehicles in the last 5 years.
We have laws on wonton waste. If your kill isn't butchered you lose your hunting license.
I remember watching one of those game warden reality TV shows and some rookies bagged a moose. They were too impatient to let it come down the mountain and had to butcher it where it fell- heavy brush on the mountain side only accessible by foot. They were cutting it into pieces by hand that were small enough to carry so they didn't get a wonton waste charge. That was some funny shit.
