As long as the animal isn’t all mangled, there’s nothing wrong with wintertime roadkill.

All fair in love and protein acquisition.

It depends on whether the toxic areas have burst and contaminated the meat. It also depends on the animal itself whether it had any diseases. It also depends on how soon after the tire tread/bumper you find it.

Years ago the law in NJ was that if you hit a deer, you could keep it to butcher...AFTER you went to a station and declared it. The problem was that the meat was spoiled by that time. I believe they changed the law so that, if you hit one, you can just take it. A friend shared an awful story about that, but I’ll spare freepers the details.

If it eats grass and it’s still warm, you’re dumb to pass it up. I smacked a big buck in Missouri and while he was still skidding down the road, I was thinking of where my knife was. Sadly, he got up and scrambled into the woods.

Road kill butchering tip: sawzall goes through bone like butter.

I think there are a few states that allow you to remove roadkill no questions asked. MI is one of them.

You gotta be fast to keep yourself off of the menu.

Fresh roadkill? On your way to town, put an X next to the road kill - on the way home anything without an “X” is fresh... ( old joke )

Here in Alaska during the winter its colder outside than most deep freezers, we have a lot of people here that actively harvest moose collisions.

Though I can’t seem to get the seasoning right when I make Subaru Sausage.

In Kalifornia, road kill is illegal...

Not all road kill is good to eat.

The amount of roadkill in Florida is absolutely prodigious. The trucks on the the Tamiami Trail picking up the morning roadkill are constantly filling up.

I always have a good amount of venison “road kill jerky” over the winter.

Friends of mine know I make it and bring me any good, clean kills, and in return we both get great jerky!

Hoping to freak everyone out who reads this post, the answer is very simple: it depends.
