Never in a waterway.
Goats and deer where they drop, roughly. On a farm I'll drag them into a gut or tomorrow and try to cover they with leave litter or loose soil. The farmers appreciate that effort.
I've got a funny thing I do with rabbits. Slip the knife up under the ribs and split them up to the chin. Turn them around and run the knife down the belly to the arse. Whip the two pieces of fur off the inside of both thighs, then stretch the pelvis open and crack the front t legs and ribs open. Then lay them on the ground like the capital letter X. It's like a smorgasbord of protein for a kahu, they are onto it by the time I've moved 50 - 100m. I think they recognize me and know the sound of a rifle means food! They leave nothing but the poo channel and sometimes the skin. Sometimes nothing. I once split about 20 rabbits and put them on one knob. Next morning there was this amazing sight of kahu circle like seagulls over a tip! 20 or 30 of them AMAZING sight!
