My "mourning period" would last as long as it took to hop that fence and recover that dead cow. We can shoot five caribou a day up here and I have done that when the freezer was empty. But I have never shot a sixth because the first one got away .
Just which fence would you hop when there are multiple possibilities leading to different ranches, end of light is rapidly approaching and you've lost the trail and don't know which fence the cow jumped or even if it jumped any of them?
On one hand you're preaching your own form of ethics and suggesting I ignore others, such as respecting the rights of landowners, while willfully and blatantly breaking laws Colorado's big game and trespass laws? Glad You're not my lawyer.
