Have you hunted before? Instant-death shots are relatively rare. Most of the time the animal is shot but still able to walk/run at least for a bit. They may quickly die of blood loss, but it’s not instant- and the hunter not infrequently has to follow up with a “mercy” shot to “put it out of its misery.” 

Ethical hunting is still far better than factory farming practices, to be clear

Yes. I’ve hunted. I’m not saying they die instantly every time. I’ve just never had a deer or rabbit thrash like a fish.
