Dispatching a wounded animal

Wounded animals can be very dangerous. I wouldn't get out of my vehicle near the animal in such a situation (without a good means of protecting myself.) Call CSP

I understand and know it's a pipe dream. Not a perfect world, but it's much the same as the thread about working in the belly of the beast. I make choices in life all the time that aren't popular or easy or right for everyone. Working for a company that is willing and to infringe on a constitutional right isn't something I could hack. Some people don't have that freedom to make that choice. Thus the "sorry" at the end.

The policy is more of a safety thing. Not some political, anti 2A policy.

I've only got about 15 years left so I'm just going to try and stay here until I retire.

Besides, my job is pretty good,benefits are great, and they pay me really well.

I don't want to. Hence why I posted here looking for options.

Looks like calling someone is the most popular option. As cruel as this will sound, I'd probably just leave it to die a slow death before I try to call and explain where I'm at. I don't exactly travel in well populated areas.

No. Just hypothetical.

Sometimes I have too much time to think during my commute and my mind wanders.

It's a double edged sword, I respect the company's "right" to the policy and the liability they might feel without it. I think I was just born too late to be living in a world that it seems normal. I lived pretty rural for a long time and had to put a ton of deer down that people left suffering in the barrow ditch. I hated it, but suffering animals hurt my soul.

And there's your answer.
Make sure to get a pic with you standing over your kill, bloody sword held high.

Seriously though, a little NAA .22 mag tucked away somewhere will do the job on most wounded deer situations. Put one shot down an ear hole or brain stem from a few feet away and it's done.

You'll need a police report for the damage to the company vehicle anyway right? PD/Sheriff/State Patrol.

Otherwise, big rock or hammer. (if it can be done safely) I've got friends who've had to do this very thing.
