A downed animal is still alive and you want to save the head for mounting. What should you do?

Shoot it in the heart-lung area
Attempt to resuscitate the animal
Call for professional help
Shoot it in the head

The correct answer is: Shoot it in the heart-lung area

While it may seem counterintuitive, shooting the animal in the heart-lung area is the most humane and effective way to save the head for mounting. Shooting it in the head may damage the head and make it less suitable for mounting. Additionally, attempting to resuscitate the animal or calling for professional help may prolong its suffering and ultimately make it unusable for mounting. Therefore, shooting it in the heart-lung area is the best option in this situation.
