I do understand that. if we had shot and killed him though-we wouldn't have even known he was shot or even there. the firing zone is a hard one in the bush too. its not like you can quickly run 1000m past the target to check for people. we had already checked the area for boats/huts for gear and the hutbooks and there was no mention of other hunters/people at all in the area
