re: Claiming another's kills....

We used to hunt right north of natchez in Fayette, MS. I killed a doe one morning around thanksgiving. We would clean the deer in the shed behind the house. We were on the outskirts of town. I cleaned the deer, deboned it, and put it on ice in the ice chest. We dorve back on the property to dump the guts, when I got back my camp, my deer had been stolen out of the ice chest. They left everything else.

At first I was so angry, who the **** would do that. But then realized they didnt harm anything else - guns, dogs, gear, trucks. They simply needed the meat more than I did. I just wished that had asked, I would have given them some.
