I think all the taxidermists in the state would be in prison.

[huntnphool]

I dont know why, for some reason I thought it was illegal in this state.

From the way the law is written and the way I interpret it the only Capes you can NOT sell would be Mountain Goat and Sheep.

Why would they make it illegal to sell velvet antlers?
