[Milskidasith]

If a hunter decides to go hunting, and manages to launch his prey flying through the air, he goes to hunt something else because the prey is considered "not there" anymore, and when the corpse appears, he never collects it.

[Untelligent]

By default, any fresh corpse that your hunter doesn't retrieve for this sort of reason is instantly forbidden (for siege survivability reasons). Unforbid it with the d-b-c button and then your other dwarves will retrieve and butcher it.

[Hyndis]

You can also change the autoforbid options so other dwarves will retrieve the corpses and haul them back in for butchering.

Note that if your hunters are using axes or swords and they chop up the deer into several pieces, each piece can be individually butchered, which actually improves the haul.

[Footkerchief]

By default, any fresh corpse that your hunter doesn't retrieve for this sort of reason is instantly forbidden (for siege survivability reasons). Unforbid it with the d-b-c button and then your other dwarves will retrieve and butcher it.

They do this even if the corpse isn't forbidden.  The bug is that they'll never get the "Return Kill" job for a creature that got launched as opposed to just killed on the spot.
