I hear this all the time. I think this is total BS. Where do you draw the line with species? Are some afforded more mortal status than others? Nobody would have given him crap for shooting a chuck in the head yet here we are crucifying him for a cow elk shot in the head. What's good for the goose is good for the gander or something like that.
This is exactly the way I look at animal life. They are all the same. I kill freas and I kill game and varmints. Dead is dead.
Someone posted if the shot was 2" to the right, he would have missed. If the elk had wings it wouldn't be an elk. What's mature about a "if"? The shot didn't go 2" to the right. It hit the head.
