I think the question should be Starlink vs InReach... A dedicated PLB (with a battery that will not run flat) should always be part of the emergency kit.

I carry a small trigger lock for when I'm in a hut as I use a single shot so no bolt to remove.

Another way is to use your compass(a sighting one is best) and take a bearing on the shot animals last position, then save a waypoint of where you shot it from, and then "GoTo' your shooting waypoint...
