    Oh please...karma has nothing to do with this.  If he was poaching or hunting illegally, then yes maybe.

    Yours. Karma for hunting a deer is being killed?   A poacher sure but a guy legally hunting deer?

    I agree this is karma.  Just because something is legal doesn't make it right.

    The only way this would be fair is if the deer was able to shoot or if the hunter killed the deer with his bare hands.

    Meh, the deer would not taste as good if you got all of blood and adrenaline flowing by trying to take it down with your bare hands (and that would probably be illegal, btw). A quick kill with a rifle is the most fair to the animal in my opinion...no need to make the deer suffer.

    I wouldn't call it karma personally, but justifiable homicide on the part of the deer.

    Same here. The hunter is trying to murder the deer, so when this happens, I totally respond to it the same as I do when I read an article about someone who killed someone in self defense. Basically, with a "good for you, animal." ...... Of course, when I read an article about someone being attacked and mauled by a bear or something, and the victim kills the bear while fighting for their life, same thing. "Good for you, human."

    I can get on page with this viewpoint better than a “karma” one.  I don’t know that I would praise the deer or anything, but realize that it is a living creature that will fight for its life same as a human would.  That being said, I do feel bad for the man’s family and their loss...cannot say I would do the same for a deer.  Most hunters realize that a deer that has been shot could still be dangerous and to approach with caution.  Basic hunter’s education stuff...

    yes, I have friends who hunt. it would be devastating, and I wouldn't be happy about it or call it karma just because I disagree with the practice. 

    mind you, my friends don't trophy hunt. they use what they kill for food. which I'm largely ok with.
