When I was landscaping in college in PA, my boss came across a cop stopping traffic for an injured deer. My boss taught meat cutting at a vocational school at night and got out to ask the cop what he was going to do with the deer. Cop said he wasn't allowed to use his service weapon for putting down injured animals. So my boss asked if he could do it and promised he'd make good use of the carcass and meat. Cop said ok, boss grabbed a pistol out of his glove box and that was that. It sounds kind of fishy for a cop to be putting down such a trophy elk in someone's yard.
