Jeeez! I wonder how many days it took him to die, waiting, hoping, someone would find him....
About 3 weeks w/o food or water
3 days without water, unless he froze to death first. It’s winter and Ohio.
Rule of 3: 3 minutes without air, 3 hours without heat in freezing temps, 3 days without water, 3 weeks without food.
My first thought too. Horrible accident.
