jwjw1 Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 ROCKAWAY TOWNSHIP, N.J. ? Wildlife officials have removed an arrow from a young deer's head and released the animal back into the New Jersey woods. The arrow that had completely pierced the 5-month-old male deer's head was removed Saturday by biologists with the Department of Environmental Protection. The biologists who did the procedure say the arrow had not damaged any major arteries or organs and the deer's prognosis for survival is excellent. The animal was treated with preventive antibiotics and released back into the wild. DEP spokesman Larry Hajna says the arrow removal was performed at a wooded private property in Rockaway Township, about 25 miles west of New York City. The property owner first spotted the injured deer on November 1. Source: ...a 5 month old deer....someone needs to be locked up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Evil Overlord Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 1) shooting a fawn isn't kosher, even in season 2) lousy shot I don't see how.. A headshot's a headshot in GTA :p (And in seriousness, yes that's a lowlife thing to do to a fawn) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hum Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 The animal was treated with preventive antibiotics and released back into the wild. Oh great -- it will just be shot in a few months anyhow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocM Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Probably, but by next season it'll be big enough to make for a freezer full of venison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
