VermontHunter Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 Re: does the state own the deer This is why you have collision insurance on your vehicle...... Here in Vermont it's at the Wardens descretion on weather you keep the animal or not.... Usually any state uses your tag fee's for conservation, and salaries of wardens and such.....

Guest asilvia68 Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 Re: does the state own the deer Here in RI you can keep the deer normally. The DEM has to come over to band it. Of course your car is totaled but insurence normally handles that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhunt Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 Re: does the state own the deer There is a roadkill law here that allows people to legally take roadkill without using any tags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 Re: does the state own the deer Deer are a resource that needs to be managed, so the state gets saddled with that management. To make the state liable for accidents is a little silly IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texan_Til_I_Die Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 Re: does the state own the deer Can't pick up a roadkill in Texas. That's probably why we see so many laying beside the highway. I counted 8 dead bucks and at least that many does over a hundred mile stretch last Friday afternoon.

VTbowman Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 Re: does the state own the deer In VT the state does consider the deer property of the state but is not held reasponsible for the action of any wild animal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reloader Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 Re: does the state own the deer The state "owns" the responsability of managing the deer and administering game laws. They do not own the deer. Even if they did own the deer, asking the state to pay for an accident is like suing the neighbor when you run over his dog...just plain sick!

Stinger-Hunter Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 Re: does the state own the deer Minnesota and Indiana for sure the deer is yours if you want it. The police have a metal band that they tag the deer with similar or same as the check-in stations do. If you don't want it, usually the state or county police have a list of people that they call and ask if they want the deer - I think those people on the list are called in rotation.
