I'll tell you mine if you tell me yours!

Another multi-tool wildlife rescue story: A couple years back a young lad was fishing in the lake behind my house and he caught a duck! The line led right into its mouth and nobody knew what to do. He reeled it in close enough to see that it hadn't swallowed the hook, which was sticking through its beak. He brought it in and I snipped the hook with my Original Leatherman tool and the duck was released with no apparent ill effects.
 
I have used my knives for quickly killing animals involved in traffic-accidents (happens A LOT here) who are beyond rescue. Quickly dispatching them is paramount to me then.
Also on a photography day in the mangroves in Mexico near Puerto Vallarta i used my knife (was a SOG Tigershark) to temporarily park my camerabag. I just hammered the knife into a nearby tree and hung my bag from it after i strengthened the handle a bit with Duct-tape. After that i was free to wade around a bit and make some pics without having to think about all the lenses etc in the crappy bag. Since then i have bought a very different camerabag: a Dryzone-200, fully waterproof :D
