understand but still sad

Being a duck hunter I know some birds are better than others and that the most meat is on the breast I work in fredrickson and took a walk and this is what I found a pile of mixed ducks with only there breasts removed when I came upon it I really had to think was it worth it ?

Pretty common from what was discussed in an earlier thread.

An attempt to stir the pot. Off topic, but do you have any pictures of your by vail buck?

Somebody dumped them right next to the blacktop?     

Ethics aside regarding breasting ducks, that is poor taste to dump them right next to the road.

Here......I'll make this understandable....

I know this is an exception not the rule. My vail buck pics are on other phone and I will try to get them. I cropped that pic. I will put the whole pic up.

See....that is so much better.

I agree!
Process your animals however you want to, but don't give people a reason to hate hunters.
Respect the animal and dispose of the waste properly.

Just another lazy hunter that makes us all look bad

I thought you were not supposed to transport ducks breasted out?

You aren't, I was thinking they were processed at home and the remains were taken out and dumped.

Once of the spots in the area where all the duck shacks are you can tell when someone is cleaning birds.  You will see a line of breasted out carcasses floating down the river.  They just pitch them out and let the current take them out to the bay.  They become seagull bait and other critter bait.

Sorry, but I feel that guys need to try way harder to harvest the meat out of waterfowl. Meat is meat, and I feel you owe it to the bird and the sport to attempt to get all the meat from your kill.

Dumping it in the open is a another bad idea.

 Didn't you condone Fred for making an instructional video on Gutless skinning of elk.? Although you did say most butchers would turn it away. I do not believe Fred takes all of the meat he could and he also owes it to the animals .Just saying.

You may not remember but Fred qualified his procedure by saying that the video only showed the basic procedure and ended before they had taken the remaining rib, neck, brisket, etc.  i don't think anyone was coming back to get the legs off this pile. I am sure it has been done but wonder what a ducks parts weigh as a percentage of the whole bird?

  What he actuall said was he probably will take SOME of the neck meat. He also qualified it by saying he has done what the state requires legally. A statement he should have left out. It does raise some question how much meat was recovered.
 I agree that no one should dump the carcass where non hunters or anyone that gets offended by this should see them. They should be put in a trash can.It is totally up to the individual whether they take the legs or not. Duck legs have bones like Turkey legs. Some do not like them. Their choice. But still should be put in trash can. I even keep the leg bones of Quail. Pain but delicious.
