Buck killed by tornado
We recently had a few tornados spawn up in several areas last month here in Georgia. One inadvertently killed a six point buck in Pike County.

A Pike County buck was found dead under a mature pine tree after a tornado ripped through parts of Pike County on Jan. 12. According to the National Weather Service, the Pike County twister was one of 12 that tore through parts of Georgia last month.

“It looked like it had 6 points, some of it was buried in the dirt,” said Mark Wallace, the hunter who discovered the buck. “I can’t imagine what it thought, just bedded down waiting for the tornado to pass and then have a tree fall on it.”

It was his time to go, I suppose! haha

Natural disasters can be tough on both man and wildlife!

We has a bunch of swans that were killed while in-flight by a freak ice storm! They were littered throughout a nice neighborhood a couple years ago.

Use Enough Gun
I came across dozens of mule deer dead from winter kill during one spring a few years ago.
