Arrowed deer. Camrose.
Could be a legal hunt outside of town but I’m betting it was some tard from in town.

That's not cool. Hopefully SRD can tranquilize the deer and remove the arrow.

^This. Surely that arrow must have caused permanent brain damage. What kind of halfwit would do such a thing!?

Oh man, that deer has to be darted and that arrow has to come out.
Why on earth does someone try a head shot with a bow??? I don’t even do that with a rifle.

F&W won't do that. They either dispatch it or leave it be
Had a Mule buck with an arrow in it in my backyard in Calgary growing up. Wouldn't do anything about it

This is where the pic came from. In the thread, a woman said she had informed f@w 2 days before this was posted and was brushed off.

I’m all for fish and wildlife officers and 99% of the time support them, but they should have enough sense to do something about this. They are knowingly helping to give us a bad image.

All these strange cases of wildlife wrong doing's all occurring at a time when there is an active gun grab agenda going on is making me question who is really behind this garbage...someone trying to make hunter's look bad to further their own agendas?
Since when is F&W not interested/too busy for thing's like this?
Who is preventing them from investigating?
Something stinks around here.
I know i know crazy talk.

Looking at this photo makes me think that the arrow was sent by a person who is not new to archery.
He knew how to shoot for sure and was trying to make a brain shot on that poor deer.
Bullet from any legal hunting calibre would have put that animal on a spot ,but obviously not an arrow...
I hope that person would see this photo of a suffering animal and consequences of his stupidity .

Every one deserves the benifit of the doubt! Fact a deer can almost lick its own bum. Hunter going for in angled shot when at the time of release the deer jerks his head rearward . Possible .it kind of looks to me its a broadhead with green something on it.

Sometimes bad stuff happens.
IMO, it can be difficult to tell when a deer is going to move. Will he take a step? Will he turn? Will he raise his head? With time, it gets easier to read what they are going to do.
I really hate to think that someone did this on purpose. Given how far this is from the heart/lung area, I'm leaning toward someone did this on purpose.
Even if this was done by a couple of local idiots, it will be blamed on hunters.
Can't believe that this isn't being 'taken care of', seeing as it's wandering in city limits.

That's the reality we live in, seen arrows stickin out of critters more than once, people need to be proficient before the go and try bow hunting. Seems everyone thinks their sharpshooters these days, the deer was either lookin at him broad side and missed horribly (did not know his limitations)or he was just being a jerk and intentionally tried going for a head shot. No respect for the animal or the sport either way.

Not to single you out but how the heck do you know anything about this particular situation ? Was it your less than proficient skills that sent this arrow ? Or were you the jerk that intentionally went for the pumpkin ?
As I stated before, stuff happens and I agree with MK on this post should be deleted.
We are our own worst enemy. The Anti's need not look further than our community to support their position.

I live in Camrose, and we have a large population of mule deer in our city. The highest scoring mule deer that I have seen lives in central Camrose, and I am actually surprised that he hasn't been poached.

Thats good to hear, at least the deer isn't suffering anymore.
Im wondering if this was just some yahoo shooting in his back yard. The photo isn't the greatest but it looks like a field point to me. If so then the incident did not take place during a legal hunt.

I don't get why F&W won't even put it out of its misery. Don't expect them to catch it and to pay huge vet bills only to see it has to be put down, but doing nothing seems wrong.
