Species Account:
Sorry, just saw it hit and it's DARK out here, but I want to send this in asap... I'm not an experienced hunter, just called friends to help salvage the meat. He's in an area miles roam, but could be whitetail...he lost his actual tail to the road
Spike buck of decent size was hit on hwy 95 southbound, at the top of the Lewiston grade, just a bit N of the truck scales. I was beside a guy in a big pick-up who hit it and I barely missed another one myself. We stopped and checked the critter and vehicles, then moved the carcass out of the road. The carcass has little evident damage other than the skull obviously broken; I think it's death was near instant. It's decent size and with the lack of damage I figured I can make use so he isn't wasted. Took photos but can't upload
