He broke loose from his orange leash last week and I've been looking for him ever since! Hold on to him, I'll come by and pick him up...

8. Darn, I wanted to make the first comment about the sartorial taste of
pre-processed venison. :-)

a radio tracking collar.

10. Radio collar
it is for research. They are checking on deer migration. We have the same thing here in AR, only the radio collars are on the elk.

13. How much trouble could a person get into
if, say, they tracked the migration to someone's mantle?

14. no trouble at all........
as long as that person had a valid tag for the buck. My brother-in-law shot a black bear earlier this year in Montana. It had a collar on as well which was obscured by all the fur. They just called the scientist listed on the collar and he came out, recorded which one it was and left. It just to track movement.

Of course, that's just me...

18. I don't hunt.....
It doesn't seem sporting to put an orange collar on the thing- it really stands out! As long as he stays on my farm, he should be ok- I have it posted and will confront any fool who thinks they can poach game on my land.
