Cause he KNEW he was dead!!
Somebody help this fella get a pistol.
Y'all don't give him too hard of a time....that is actually really, really common amongst hunters. I hear it all the time when I go on tracks...
Hunter: "We can take a gun if you want to but I'm pretty sure this ones gonna be dead."
....yet, at least 60% (or better) of them are still alive. It's a psychological deal. We perceive the outcome that we want to see.
