Why is he decorating it with twigs?
It's a sign of respect for the animal that's just given its life up so that another may live. An ancient hunters tradition that spans virtually all aboriginal cultures world wide.
Something a lot of traditional European hunters do, that American hunters might consider emulating.
I always say a prayer of thanks to any animal I kill for food. Its just how I was taught when I was a kid.

Thanks for posting it. He is right a good hunt is about what you see and experience not just the harvesting of an animal.

He is giving it a last mouthful or meal for the 'afterlife'. It is a sign of respect for the animal whose life you have just taken, hopefully, to prolong your own. Here in Europe we DO have a different take on killing animals, as you can see. He is very visibly moved by the event, if you watch carefully.
As usual, another exceptional hunting video from CapNBall. Thanks for posting. I can't imagine the pleasure of hunting with an original 18th century rifle. 
I'd say he redeemed his earlier miss!

Good video Brit, I always place a twig or leaf in the deer's mouth a long with a bit of water and say a small thank you for the life I was just allowed to take. It is my way of thanking the animal for providing for me and my family . I never feel anger towards the animal but sorrow. Before it crossed my path it was alive and enjoying life in a split second I ended it. We as hunters should respect the harvest it is a good thing.
