they are amazingly hardy, I took one to the vets earlier this year which had been speared through the head and out through the throat. It even had maggots crawling out of the wound when I applied some antiseptic cream. A few days at the vets it started to drink fluids and eat and eventually was released back into the wild. Antibiotics and TLC can work wonders.

As for leaving it to die because thats nature? each their own, My daughter received the greatest satisfaction out of knowing the animal she rescued from certain death survived.
