The meat will mosf likely be in very poor condition. We tried eating a roadkill deer we hit back in college. Meat was all bruised and ended up being a waste of time. Ive heard the same from others that have tried. Good luck.

DNR collects dead eagles and keeps them on ice while they follow the Federal procedure to get the bird to an approved Indian tribe. The process takes a long time to complete as you can well imagine with two bureaucracies involved.

Idaho we just have 24hrs to fill out a salvage report. As far as the meat it Depends on the animal and how it was hit. Most of the time you can tell right away if its ok. If its splattered I dont mess with them. But many times they are just hit on the head or shoulder and the other parts are good. We had a spike elk last year and it was probably the best elk Ive ever had. all quarters were intact surprising because it was hit at 80+mph by a Sheriff.

I used to joke about picking up road kill to eat... But I guess its a thing.

On my drive home tonight, there was a car driving about a 1/2 mile in front of me. Saw a deer on the side of the road and some broken plastic around it. Then I saw the car in front pull off the side. Never saw it hit the deer, but noticed the side curtain air bags deployed.
Pulled over to make sure everything was ok... Yup, the deer it that car.. Driver and her son was ok.. shaken up a bit, but ok. I thought about throwing the deer in my trunk, but wasn't sure how I'd go about getting a tag to take to the butcher...
I guess I know now, based on this thread..

Being a hunter, I've tagged my own on the spot. I've only collected road kill I've witnessed(and usually finished off) being hit.

Just call the DNR field office like for a deadhead.
If you have the Dnr I’d it should be easy and just a phone call to get numbers for a butcher / possession tag.

My mother and uncle grew up in a catholic orphanage in the Pennsylvania coal region after the war.
She told me she didn’t feature deer much any longer after it being the only main course available since she was a child to becoming a young adult.
Lots of people after the war in the same area didn’t even have the ability to afford clothes.
Often woman’s garments were tailored from axis uniforms sent home from Europe repurposed from what was removed or taken from dead soldiers after being returned home by loved ones.
