Thanks for the comments everyone. The supporting ones I'm especially grateful for, though it's not like I don't have a sense of humor. I've gotten over it for the most part after talking to some people, and so was able to appreciate the jokes... though they were a bit soon

It was actually a doe that I hit, so I'm lucky that I didn't have to deal with antlers, and at about 30-40mph, I just have some annoying dents in my car now. What was sad was getting out and seeing that the creature was still alive, breathing heavily. I put my hand on it (which I know I shouldn't have done, but by this point it was pretty much dead) and prayed for it. Some officers showed up and helped/consoled me, and I drove past today and the body is gone, so I'm hoping they did something productive with it. I don't believe in hunting, but I do believe that if you are going to hunt that it should be for food, and not just for sport. I called the police station today and am expecting a call back from the officer that helped me so I can find out what they did with it, for my piece of mind (for better or worse).

I'm an animal wuss, I admit it. That would have made me sick with guilt, even though it wasn't your fault. All of God's creatures are beautiful! Well, almost all. Even I can't figure out what the heck he was thinking with some of these things................... https://www.google.com/search?q=cra...W58gGR44GYDw&ved=0CAgQ_AUoAQ&biw=1172&bih=648

You know those cops had a good laugh back at the station.

Don't get me wrong I'd cry, but because I'd have to pay my deductible.

Ah, and the voice of reason and perspective rises.

Not sure of your intent but I will take that as a compliment.

I agree with Runnah, but seriously. If you can swing it harvest the meat and feed people. That's the most respectful thing you can do if you feel that bad. Give it a purpose.

Don't forget to eat the heart to absorb the strength of the animal.

It was. And it was a deer. :crazy:But now I'm starting to feel sorry for the spoiled little kingie in your avatar. Is he a contributor on TPF? I think the little bully person is in need of counseling.
