Cecil, know the feeling. When I hunted seriously it was almost always a concern of mortally wounding an animal that didn't get recovered and used and it happened. However, unlike greedy self centered humans Ma nature is most efficient. When an animal/mammal/fish is killed, somehow, somewhere down the line EVERY molecule of that being is used in a positive manner. As long as something is harvested (killed) in an accidental or well intentioned manner and not utilized by the predator there should be no guilt or self admonishment.


Do nature a favor, spay/neuter your pets and any weird friends or relatives.
