If you hit a deer, or find one that has been hit, don't touch it. If you want it, for taxidermy purposes, or whatever, call the DNR or Sheriff first. Only after they come out and tell you it's okay, or give you a permit to have it, can you take it. As far as what is salvagable, it all depends on the damage done by the vehicle. The area where he was hit will be bruised. IF the deer is to be taxidermied, it will need to be field dressed and brought shortly to a taxidermist. Rick

What I wondered, is what is the ideal way to bring a deer to a taxidermist? I mean what should I do to it to prepare it or just let the taxidermist handle all those details? And can you take a deer that you may've killed goin down the road, to a taxidermist to have it mounted? And if you were to do that, would there be anything I'd need to do to it before I brought it to someone? Just wondering, because there are soo many deer where I live, Thanks

how soon does someone have to get you the deer after it's killed and in what state would you rather get? Like the whole deer, cut up, or what? I don't know anything about this but I'm interested and have always wondered if I were to hit and kill a deer driving down the gighway, could I take it to a taxidermist and have it fixed so it don't just completely go to waste. And if I were to do that , what would be the ideal way for a taxidermist to receive a deer killed like that? |
