Species Account:
I wittnessed an oncoming car hit the fawn and the semi behind him drag the deer off the road. When i approched the deer had labored breating and could not move. It was a yearling whitetail deer and looked to have the starts of nubs for antlers but i did not check gender. As i approched the animal i called idaho state police to double check if i could dispatch it. After conformation I shot the deer in the head with a .45 cap. It died immediately. I had no means of transporting it to salvage it or i would have. The deer looked to be healthy and well nourished beside the fact that it was hit.
