I need a gun

On my drive home from work today I past a buzzard that was injured. It couldnt fly and its wing and side was bloody.
I could hear my grandma saying "Just ring his Neck!!"
Yeah Im not really sure how to ring a neck, but I do wish I carried a gun just for these instances.
It hurts me to leave an animal who is suffering.
I thought about pulling it from the ditch and running over its head.
But he was ginormous and I didnt feel like getting pecked to death.

Sorry my buzzard friend :(

  1. My husband thinks I'm crazy, but I cannot stand to see an animal in pain. I watched some sort of creature (badger? woodchuck?) get hit in traffic one day, and saw him flailing about in pain. I watched helplessly in my rear-view mirror until he was out of sight. Call me a bleeding heart, but it actually hurt to not be able to do anything for him.
