in NH you have to have it 'tagged' (the police keep a record of animal type/approximate age/gender/area where killed), but its free
Many years ago, I was living at a ski resort. I had gone south for a few days and was driving back up the mountain LATE at night. Came around a corner and 3 deer were in the road - a momma with 2 babies. I slammed on my brakes and aimed for the gap between the babies as I started to slide. I BARELY clipped the head of one, but I caught the backend of the other. The mom took off. I was hysterical. I dragged both babies off the side of the road, got in my car and drove home. While I had been away, one of my roommates had about 20 friends come up visiting - sleeping on the floor. I woke EVERYONE up, when I called my folks crying about my crashed car and dead babies. I hung up the phone, and about 10 of them asked me why I didn't throw the babies in my trunk. I just cried harder and went up to my room.

I don't believe anyone tags road kill around here - nobody cared about my dead baby deer. I drove down a few days later, and there was no sign of them, so somebody ate em, but it wasn't going to be me!

i do want to say that when i was little my neighbor's horse was hit by a state plow truck, plows do a lot of damage to animals unfortunately
stupid snow seasons
 
A motorcycle friend of mine earned the nickname of "Gary the Deer Hunter" because he hit three deer in the years that he rode on the street.
