you know when someone hits a deer and they get to keep the meat?

if they're wild cows, i suppose you could. If the farmer was aware of a fence breach and did nothing to contain it, he may give you the cow meat in lieu of you suing him.

It's illegal to keep the deer that wiped out the front of your car in most of the states I've lived in. Personally I always thought it was a waste of good meat, but if it's not hunting season and you don't have the appropriate deer/elk tag...gotta leave it lay.
 
The better question is wouldn't it just be easier and cheaper to buy a few bullets then using your car to get free meat? 😉

Don't know how much power you think the word "poaching" has but it is not enough to keep people from taking deer that they hit and having it processed.

that is up to the law enforcement officer who shows up only if he's called.

I know an official allowed my friend's father to keep a deer my dad hit once.
 
In NY, the troopers or DEC will give you a tag for the deer. That hasn't stopped me from pulling up along side road kill, checking the temperature of the carcass (to determine how recently it was hit), and tossing it into the trunk.

Remind me never to eat your cooking.

I had a close call tonight, and a friend of mine actually hit one on the highway. Gotta go over and check his van out tomorrow. I have no idea what the laws are here, but sometimes deer sit by the side of the highway for days.

So, I'm guessing no one watched the video then?

Yes, I watched it. Not very dramatic.

Why's that? Is there a difference between hitting a cow over the head with a sledge hammer & hitting a deer in the head with the bumper of a pick-up truck? I of course don't use any of the meat that's been bruised. But, otherwise, there's absolutely no difference between the meat if the deer has been shot and if the deer has been thumped by a car (except that you only end up with about half as much meat due to waste. Usually 1 hind quarter is just fine, and more than half of the back loins & both tenderloins are good.

Unless it's apparent that most of the meat has been damaged, most deer don't last too long on the side of the road around here.

not here.

If you hit a deer (no matter when) and it is dead or has to be put down, you are given the choice if you want it or not. There is some red tape involved but you do have the choice.

My uncle used to get deer meat that way. Mmmm venison!!!

It's illegal to keep the deer that wiped out the front of your car in most of the states I've lived in. Personally I always thought it was a waste of good meat, but if it's not hunting season and you don't have the appropriate deer/elk tag...gotta leave it lay.

Legal in NH if you get the right form.

Do you carry said form with you in anticipation of the next big score? I'd be VERY skeptical of any road-kill that had to wait while I went to town, filled out the appropriate forms, then came back...Even in weather that's cold enough to stop/delay the meat from spoiling, any serious internal damage such as a torn/ruptured intestine, could taint quite a bit of meat and give it a shitty taste.

I posted the official policy of Colorado here before, so here it is again.

It is now legal in the state of Colorado to remove undomesticated animals from any public roadway, without the notification of the division of wildlife. These animals may be used for human consumption if properly processed, however the authorities warn that any use of the animal carcass for religious rituals or unnatural sexual pleasure is strictly forbidden.
