35 some years ago, my husband and three of his buddies loved to hunt antelope, elk and deer. Early one morning, they left before sunrise, to a place that deer had been seen the day before.

Two of the guys went around to one side of a hill - and my husband and another buddy took the opposite side.

On their trek, husband and friend came accross a barbed wire fence. They looked up and down the fence, for an opening, and came accross a young female deer, tangled in the wire. It appeared she had been there for at least 24 hours, and was frightened and bleeding.

With a little work, they freed the doe, and stood there, petting her, until she calmed down somewhat, and her breathing became more regular. Eye contact between a wild creature and man was heart tugging.

Then, they patted her back side lightly, and she ran off to freedom. That is until she went over the hill - and BLAM!!! BLAMMM!!!

The buddies........

My husband never hunted again.
