Illinois Cop Uses Gun To Free Deer [Pretty Graphic]

By -

I'm not a religious man, but God Bless this Illinois police officer for freeing two antler-locked bucks by shooting at their antlers. The officer told The Daily Mail that the bucks were may have been struggling for a while and would have died if they were unable to free themselves.




From Daily Mail:

The officers discuss potentially having to put the animal down due to possible injuries during the scuffle though no update on its condition was provided.

“Illinois Dept. of Natural Resources law enforcement officers are periodically alerted to these types of instances. While not common, it happens,” the department said in an email to MailOnline.

“Fights among male deer are common and occasionally their antlers become entangled. Sometimes the deer are able to free themselves…sometimes not, and in those instances we have found deer which become locked together and perish before someone comes along to find and possibly free them.”

Reaction to the video posted by the department’s Facebook page is varied with some crying animal abuse and others praising the sharp shooting that potentially spared both animals’ their lives.

    Deer Shawn, that was a great video. My Aunt Lers said the same thing happened to her when she was a Can Can dancer in a bar. No matter what the Buck stops with that officer. That was GREAT shooting. My oldest son said he has seen that before, my Veni Son said he had never seen it happen

    That's a good confident shot with a live animal mere inches away from the aim point.

    Did anyone read some of the comments on the UK site on this? Some dude who claims to support PETA said the officers should have "comforted" the deer before shooting. Yeah, go pat a deer on the head and say it will be all right during the rut. Make sure you put some doe scent on first. There are very few people who might be able to walk up to deer and free them.

    Others said to use tranqs etc. I wonder if tranquilizers would have killed a stressed out deer. The shots work fast. Both deer ran off. Both were shook up and that one that stumbled may have a neck injury from the fight. Can't really fault the guys for the method. I might have just bagged and tagged both for the freezer had I seen it during hunting season.

    They probably thought the same thing I did till I read the article I actually thought the cop shot the one deer so I think it's people ignorance to read before forming an opinion

    Follow-up has shown that generally both deer will die due to stress.

Rumors abound on whether or not Finding Bigfoot will continue, but hopeful news is on the horizon. Snake Oil Productions, the production company responsible for Finding Bigfoot, is seeking a permit for filming in the Monterey, Virginia area. Monterey lies between the Monongahela and George Washington National Forests. Definitely a good place to look for bigfoot. We can only speculate if this means Finding Bigfoot has been signed on for additional seasons, or if perhaps a new bigfoot show is in the works. We'll keep you updated on any further announcements for sure.

Bigfoot injured by a forest fire was taken away and hidden by the authorities, not even Robert Lindsay can top this story

This story was circulating the internet way back in 2004, or maybe as far back as 1999. Back when everybody was on 56k dial-up modems and a "Facebook" was just a regular book with directory listing of names and headshots. This story was so disturbing and so shocking that nobody believed it at the time. It was the Robert Lindsay " Bear Hunter: Two Bigfoots Shot and DNA Samples Taken " story of the time. And like Robert's Bear Hunter story , this witness didn't have a name. The only thing known about the witness is that this person was a government employee, anonymous of course. The author of the story was a science teacher named Thom Powell who believe it really happened and that the whole story was an elaborate cover-up. Powell said the anonymous government employee alerted the BFRO about a 7.5 feet long/tall burn victim with "multiple burns on hands, feet, legs and body; some 2nd and 3rd degree burns". Sadly, there was no DNA samples taken from

Samurai Chatter: Have you used it in the field?

Editor's Note: This is a guest post by Suzie M., a sasquatch enthusiast. Crypto-linguists believe that the species known Bigfoot/Sasquatch/Yeti/Yowie ect speak and understand a complex language, which by all accounts seems to stem from Asia. When one listens to it there is definitely a sense of it being Chinese or Japanese. It is a very odd mix of sounds, clicks and what could be actual words. This is the reason some experts are looking into the Asian dialect theory, some have said it could be a lost dialect, which was carried from Asia by the Bigfoot species that colonised America.
