The day the deer struck back

SEDALIA, Mo. ? A Sedalia hunter bagged a big buck on the second day of firearms season, but the kill caused him a lot of pain.

Forty-nine-year-old Randy Goodman said he thought two well-placed shots with his .270-caliber rifle had killed the buck on Nov. 19. Goodman said the deer looked dead to him, but seconds later the nine-point, 240-pound animal came to life.

The buck rose up, knocked Goodman down and attacked him with his antlers in what the veteran hunter called "15 seconds of hell." The deer ran a short distance and went down, and died after Goodman fired two more shots.

Soon Goodman started feeling dizzy and noticed his vest was soaked in blood.

So he reached his truck and drove to a hospital, where he received seven staples in his scalp and was treated for a slight concussion and bruises.

I am sure he is leaving things out, I bet the hunter came down from the stand right away after he shot it instead of waiting the 15+ minutes for it to die.

Maybe he needs to start hunting rabbits instead. What's the worst that could happen when hunting a little bunny?

The cuteness overload could incapacitate him. *snorgle*

Too bad the deer was the one who died.

it's either that or they die of starvation/disease because of overpopulation. which would you choose? the herd needs to be thinned by legal hunting or else it grows too large.

ARTHUR: What?
TIM: There he is!
ARTHUR: Where?
TIM: There!
ARTHUR: What, behind the rabbit?
TIM: It is the rabbit.
ARTHUR: You silly sod!
TIM: What?
ARTHUR: You got us all worked up!
TIM: Well, that's no ordinary rabbit!
ARTHUR: Ohh.
TIM: That's the most foul, cruel, and bad-tempered rodent you ever set eyes on!
ROBIN: You tit! I soiled my armour I was so scared!
TIM: Look, that rabbit's got a vicious streak a mile wide! It's a killer!

 
This happens quite a bit. It happens here once a year at least that someone throws a deer in the back of the pickup only to have it come alive on the drive home.
