I was on my way to hunt this evening when I spotted this scene on the side of the road about 100 yards from where I park.
I noticed the white belly and turned around to see if it was one of the bucks I had been chasing. It turned out to be a doe with a button buck laying under her.
They didnt appear to have been there long. there was still hair in the 2 dark spots on the road, blood, and after rolling the doe over I found that the blood was still wet underneath her. It was obvious at the time that at least three of her legs were broke and the fawn was pretty busted up as well.
I debated for a bit, and texted a couple toozers and decided to call the sheriff and claim them. I have been hunting this area hard and new there weren't many does around and really didn't want to see them go to waste.
I got them home and started on the button first. He was no good. the skin had a greenish tint to it. The smell was horrible. His internals were completely destroyed as well as three broken legs. I believe the doe laying on top of him help to preserve enough heat to spoil him.
The doe was next. All 4 of her legs were shattered, her internals were busted up. Even her spine was broken which ruined the back straps. In short i wasn't able to save anything.
Not sure if they landed in this position or if they were placed here by whoever hit them, but I can tell you that whoever it was has some serious damage to their vehicle.
damned shame.
