Talked to the convenience store clerk: guys caught- station had security cameras- and it was a couple of guys who had been hunting and stopped at the store on their way home and gutted the deer. supposedly said they gutted in the grass beside the store and not on the parking lot but???????. As for me posting ignorant hunters, I offer my apology- they were probably not ignorant, just not thinking but thats what gives sportsmen a bad name and gives radicals extra ammo. Here on the shore it is not uncommon to find landowners who will not allow a gutpile to remain on their property after field dressing. I got a phone call from a land owner last year after I gutted a deer on the edge of a hedgerow and bean field and was told if I left "animal parts" on the property I could no longer hunt it. Next morning when I went to bag and remove the pile all that was left was a few pieces of corn and a beautiful red fox which I just got back from the taxidermist. Problem here is as farms are being sold new owners seem to be big money, big city guys who care lease the fields to real farmers and consider wildlife a resource to help make mortgage payments via huntclubs.
