For any one whose views on or about hunting that were influenced impart by
Walt Disney's movie *Bambi* that is now more than *50* years old,(believe
it
or not).
It is quite likely that you might consider the news out of northwestern
Colorado over the past weekend to be Bambi's long over due and quite
justifiable revenge.
A hunter stalking big game roughly 15 miles south of Craig shot and downed
a
buck deer.
When the hunter approached the downed animal, the buck jumped to its feet
and gored the unsuspecting hunter, apparently inflicting "significant
injuries" according to Division of Wildlife spokesman Randy Hampton.
Anti-Hunting types have regularly noted that stalking deer, elk or moose
with high-powered, modern-day rifles does not exactly represent the
relatively "equal" contest that existed when primitive man hunted wooly
mammoths with little more than a long stick with a sharpened stone tied
to
the end of it.
A good point, that, but one that doesn't override the fact that modern-day
hunting can still be a fundamentally risky sport.
We wish the unlucky man a speedy recovery.
