Taking antlers off a roadside carcass Nov 10, 2006 10:27:08 GMT -5

I know I have to get a permit from a law officer to take possession of a road killed deer, but what about only the antlers?
I have a hacksaw in my truck and I've been tempted to remove antlers from the road kill, but been afraid I'd get busted. There's a CO that lives down the road from a busy deer crossing near where I live.
Thanks

You'll need a permit. Talk to your local CO.
The image of a deer with the antlers cut off......roadkill or not, laying along the side of the road is not good. I tell people if they want the antlers, then they need to take it all, or they don't get a permit.
