A shocking guide on how long an animal suffers before death when bowhunted
Friday 14th November 2014
Let them suffer??
The shocking truth about hunting animals with a bow.
“See em fall, 5-10' [minutes] Feel good about the shot, arrow looks good (bright bubbly blood all over it) but dont see the [animal] fall, and think you hear it fall: 20-60' [minutes] Feel ok about the shot, didnt hear or see it fall, arrow has darkish blood on it 4-6hrs. Pretty sure it was shot in the paunch, arrow may have some blood, some greenish goo or "food chunks" on it... 12 hrs. [meaning 12 hours if you hit the animal in the gut – and by then in all likelihood you will not recover it]”
Why is bow hunting legal in trophy hunting countries in Africa?
