Did you happen to tell F&W you knew who shot it when you applied for your permit?

So what's the time limit on taking a dead head? What's the protocol for shooting an injured animal? What if someone misses the shot completely, do they get dibs on it in the future? What if an animal isn't mortally injured from a bad shot, is it still the original shooters animal until the end of the day? Week? Month? Season?
A guy shot an animal and couldn't find it after a long hard search and leaves. End of his "possession" of said animal. New hunter finds it, dead or alive, now it's his opportunity to take said animal. End of story.
