A girl pegged a doe right in front of me quite a few years ago. I stopped and asked if she was ok, gave her my info for insurance purposes ( witness in case insurance didn't believe it was wildlife).
Then I asked... "Are you going to eat that?" She gave me the strangest look and said "NO!"
"Cool mind if I take her home then?" I asked. "Be my guest" was her reply.
Mmm Mmm Mmm fresh doe.
Best part was when I called for a permit/tag or whatever, the NRO said they usually donate them to the needy, I said I am the needy (kinda was at the time)
When they came to get it and saw my place the said I could keep it and come get the tag in the morning. When I showed up he pulled another doe out of the freezer already cleaned and ready to cut.... they said "here take this one too."
AWESOME!
