What are you supposed to do give them CPR There is a very good chance they were intoxicated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen injured deer on the side of the road and thought about helping. I usually have a gun on me and could easily put the animal down and end its suffering. The problem with that is it is against the law to fire a gun right next to a road. NY is always looking for ways to take your gun permit away and it is not worth the risk.

However you are correct, it is illegal for an individual to shoot a wounded animal. A law officer is supposed to do it, but I know a guy who was asked by an officer to shoot a deer that was hit by a car because he didn't want to fill out the paper work.

It was very obviously sick and did not attempt to run from anyone. I live in a developement with many children and pets. The troopers finally told us to shoot it and bury it. I had my 9mm on me at the time and we grabbed it in a fishing net and shot it behind one of the houses. I was sure that the police would come to get me for firing a gun in a nieghborhood. On a brighter note my nieghbors are much nicer to me now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, with the left front headlight out, they couldn't see well Or, the impact with the deer caused the GPS to malfunction And of couse the deer kept running, thus removing the evidence or lack thereof............
