re: Louisiana Hunter Killed in Mississippi

They are both at fault, but the man that shot should face some sort of penalty. In my club you are fined for shooting a small buck. The defense of I thought it was a doe is wrong. That just says you didn't know 100% what you were shooting at and you get fined and it goes against your buck limit. I pass on bucks all the time because I'm not 100% on size. Better to let them walk and grow.
In this case the shooter is wrong unless the victim was wearing antlers and a pelt and walking on all fours.
