Roadkill

I’m tired of posting about Trump.  Just looking at him makes my skin crawl.  So tonight I’m writing about a much more pleasant subject.


Did you know it is legal in Pennsylvania to pick up road-killed deer for personal consumption?  There are a few stipulations.  You have to be a Pennsylvania resident, and you must notify the Game Commission within 24 hours.  They will issue a permit number for the meat along with instructions on what to do with the inedible parts, like antlers.  


I learned this today in an article by Ben Moyer in the latest issue of the Pennsylvania Game News.  Use your common sense, of course.  Do I really need to say the carcass should be fresh?  


By the way, the same rules apply to road-killed turkeys.
