Bob, are you telling me its against the law to wound an animal? If it gets gets away, how are you wasting it?
You might want to look this one up.
PS, it was a joke.
PSS, after thinking about it, there are no laws against taking a low percentage shot, which is as it should be. It's too subjective. You can't legislate ethics.
And it would be the ultimate slippery slope.
smokepole: I did look it up.
Under the definitions I saw,wanton waste includes both "killing" and "wounding".
Whether this falls into either category depends on all the facts. That's what courts are for.
