Weird Sights on the Highway

Depending on how the antlers score they could be worth big money. Right now my brother is wanting to buy a rack... last time that rack sold it went for $20,000.

 

In PA you can't take any part of "Road Kill" unless you contact the Game Commission and get issued a permit/tag. You could be arrested if you got caught doing what that man did.

 

People will get them for rattling, too. Like a previous poster said, it's often illegal, though, and can result in fines.

 

"If you've ever stopped traffic so you can saw the antlers off a roadkill buck . . .

"You might be a redneck."

And every good redneck keeps tools in his truck.

And I mean "redneck" in the most positive way.

 

I have a friend and she said that when she was a kid her Dad hit a deer on the highway. He stopped the car, jumped out, threw it in the back of his van and told his kids to hold it. He took it home and killed and ate it.

Quote:We live in PA and yes, this can be a nasty fine. "bout a year ago a neighbor found a dead deer on his property missing its antlers and tail but otherwise left. Anyway, this guy is new and wasn't country so he called the police. Then he had to spend hours defending himself to try to prove that he wasn't the one that took the rack and tail!! I think his sheer ignorance of the value of those things finally won the officer over.

We said we'd take the meat. It wasn't that old! He was thoroughly disgusted by us..... Less than 24 hours on a cold night??

 

I've seen that several times. I've also seen people cut off fox & raccoon tails & the rattles off rattlesnakes.

Clashing 2 antlers together to sound like fighting or rubbing bucks. It lures in other bucks.
