I do know that none were processed that day and in the freezer by the end of week. If they were eaten, it would be comparing apples to oranges. These animals had time to metabolize the anectine prior to being processed if they did end up as supper.

Correct me if I'm wrong here @skydoc but to make sure I'm following you correctly I'm going to play dumb and repeat what you said in my own words- the apples to oranges comes in because none of the animals you have experience with died at the point of/shortly after anectine administration, so with an active metabolism and functioning liver/kidneys (what organs do the filtering/have any associated toxicity for this med?, google knows but I'm lazy) they metabolized the drug and moved on with their lives, before being euthanized at some point in the future, so the whole idea of eating tainted meat wouldn't apply.

Does anectine have a chemical half life that factors in/degrades in a blood like environment with no active circulation/limited cellular metabolism prior to organism expiration?

Right on.

I’m sure we can find an answer to this, but is this a minutes/hours process, or weeks/months/years process? I’m assuming it’s metabolized in minutes/hours, as that’s what allows the animal to recover right? Assuming they’ve remained alive of course.

If the animal dies, the metabolizing process stops. Any medication left in blood or tissues remains there. Cant give ya definitive answer on how long it would take the deer to metabolize. It is broken down by cholinesterase in the animals liver. Not sure what a deers normal serum cholinesterase levels would look like.
