Kinda nice Blacktail dead head I picked up this year
« on: November 16, 2016, 07:38:30 PM »
Big three and a half year old or more likely a four and a half year old.  Damn if it didn't get chewed a bit on one side though. 

I saw him crossing a road last year about a quarter mile from where I found the bones scattered. 

The place I found him is kind of a deer graveyard.  Me thinks it is where they go to try and recuperate or maybe to die.  It's deep and dark and  I find a lot of skeletons in there. 

This one had large bones shattered, hit by motor vehicle is my guess.

Well I learned something today, guess I will have to deposit it back where I found it.  Luckily it is only a few blocks from my house.

Yep, you learned internet police are waiting at every corner for the chance to rat you out or tell you what you did wrong.  Cool find, I bet.  Wouldn't blame you for never posting a pic of it.

That's BS, I see nothing wrong with letting someone know about a law they clearly didn't know about.

 Would the new salvage law allow for picking up year old road kill? :dunno:

I know someone will push the law eventually and screw up a good thing

I didn't know a thing about that law.  I do now. 

The rats in Tacoma are a real nuisance and they chew any antler that lies on the ground for any length of time really badly and it doesn't take them long to do it.

  To curb poaching. They think you are going to shoot an animal, let it rot, and then recover the head.
