Last week I shot a deer with a bow. The shot entered the left lung aft of the shoulder and continued through the right beneath the shoulder. After the shot he took off running. All of that is normal... Here's where it gets odd... I trailed him for a while following the blood drops. There was good blood for about forty yards, then almost a pool of blood where he obviously stopped and I think laid down (based on the leaves being matted and soaked in a deer sized area) but that's where the bleeding just STOPPED. No more blood and no deer. I had a good idea where he was headed and I did find him at least another thirty or forty yards from where the blood drops stopped, but how is it possible to bleed like crazy and then go that much further with no blood left dripping?
Mostly I'm asking two questions. Is that normal? And what's going on physically that could have made this possible?
