Else where in the U.S., Georgia authorities are looking for your help to nab whoever taped this deer to a road sign.
Officers said the deer was found on Highway 90 after several people called 911 to report it. According to officers, the deer had been shot, so they are investigating if the deer was illegally hunted.
In a photo posted on Facebook, you can see someone duct taped sunglasses on the deer, and it appears they also put a shirt on it.
Photos of the deer first appeared on Facebook on Tuesday. And now WALB reports authorities are saying the deer was shot and they are investigating the incident further. A reward is also being offered for leads in this strange case.
Not only does it appear the deer was shot, but the person or persons responsible also apparently put a shirt on the animal and taped sunglasses to its head. Read and see the rest of the duct taped deer news footage here.
Did the dead sign a DNR?

The shot part doesn't fit with the prank part.
I question the shot part.
Call in SCORPION and let's get to the bottom of this.
Total waste of meat.
Appalling cruelty. Perp needs jail time.
Why was it cruel? The deer was dead.....
Lots of deer hit in vehicular accidents are shot to end their suffering. It is very common.
About 65,000 deer are hit in traffic accidents every year.
From the picture, I do not see any obvious signs of being in a vehicular accident, but some “road killed” deer do not show obvious exterior damage (most do).
The picture does not show any obvious signs of being a road-kill either, but it almost certainly is one.
Living here for awhile.. i’m not even surprised.
There are deer hunters and deer killers. There is a difference.
I hit a deer while going 55mph in a compact car. I never saw the deer, I actually thought someone rear ended me until I saw the massive front end damage and the fur on the hood. God only knows how far adrenaline carried the poor thing or where it collapsed.
It’s that clear liquor that makes mountain folk act out
