Sooo....lets play a game, its called:
"How would you Euthanize an injured Deer with just whats in your car?"
I'll go first.
I'm ashamed to admit that I dont have a proper Roadside Emergency kit in my car. Off the top of my head I have:
- Snow Brush (of course)
- Spare Tire (and accompanying accouterments)
- Matches
- Gloves (wool)
- Blanket (wool)
- Chloroform and Duct Tape
- 1 Bottle Windshield Washer fluid (All-Season)
- 1 Bottle Radiator Fluid (Pre-Mixed)
- 2 Calgary Flames Car Flags
- Booster Cables
- Toque
So the scenario is that I've winged a Deer and its injured by the roadside and cant move. Its going to die eventually, I'm trying to be a good child of Mother Gaia and to put one of her creatures to rest as humanely as possible.
The car flags and snowbrush dont seem ideal. The tire iron is one of those 'X' types so you cant get a real good swing and theres not much force or weight behind it.
So far its looking like building some sort of pyre out of my gloves, blanket and toque and using the booster cables to drag the Deer onto it and setting it ablaze is my best bet.
Or tying the blanket to the car-jack somehow to create some sort of swingable weapon...that jack has some nice weight to it.
Or perhaps strangling it to death using the Booster Cables?
But what I wouldnt do is drive my car at it for a quarter of an hour like an idiot...
