[QUOTE="cowgirl8, post: 1119498, member: 22072"] Weird situation....BUT, there has been a couple times we've had a down cow that didnt last until she calved. Cant stand to see anything go to waste, i was ready with a knife when a bullet was put in their head, i went to cutting. We've done this twice and both times the calf was too small. My daughter did it once and was by herself. Took her too long and the calf died. We would never do what this guy did because we never keep anything that shows they get really upset if they are penned alone. But i'm going to guess if he tried he would have never gotten a life calf out if he shot from a distance... and of course, i dont know what kind of shot he was, i suppose she could hit the ground alive and then he go to work. He could accidentally gut shoot her...then, well, no point in trying if that happened. [/QUOTE]
