umm, dude? What are the red spots?
That's where it was shot. I didn't quite understand it either, but Greg says that when you fire "shot" it's a whole load of small bits so the animal gets hit in lots of places at once -- this is to ensure that it dies and doesn't walk off wounded. I have managed to find two bits of shot in the meat but I've no idea where the rest have gone to... If anybody out there has a more technical/informative explanation than this, feel free to share...
