Finding winter kills?

[cougarbart]

exactly!  bone!  I found a big moose wolf kill about 10 yrs ago in idaho, called game dept a warden ended up calling asking some questions asked if i would take pix of site and horns and go ahead and bring it to an office and gave me a form so i could keep it!



Do have to remember most winter kills happen late winter, early spring and they have already lost their horns!

I'm pretty sure it's legal to pick up dead heads in Idaho

I voted elk.

I hunt in a 3pt min unit and came across a dead 2pt that had been shot. It didn't have anything resembling a third point, shook my head in disappointment and continued on. Was back in the same area during elk season and saw that the antlers had been cut off with a hand saw.....probably not a coincidence.

In Montana and Wyoming you have to notify the Gamey or DNR/Biologist rep.  They can approve/disprove the animal died of natural causes, and allow you to take the head.

That's why I am glad all of the deadheads I have found were in ID.

In some states they will investigate and then give you the head.   I have no idea what an investigation holds.

   Hopefully this isnt done by Christine Gregiore       Sorry... couldnt resist

MsWallace, can't PM you, inbox full?  Here's the info.

Here's the link for state wildlife.  http://wdfw.wa.gov/licensing/scp/  This one costs a bunch, $117.  This one will ask what you plan to collect, we don't collect live wildlife so just put something like incidental salvage.

If she wants to be able to collect migratory birds including hawks and owls, nests, or feathers she needs a Federal Permit which is actually easier to get.  This one is free for teachers or schools.  A google search should find it.

In this wonderfull state, you are looking at a cash cow......crime scene.  Pick it up, and you are under investigation for alot more than picking it up.
