Like any kill, I imagine that road kill is just as edible as long as it is recovered in a reasonable amount of time following the kill. 8>)

I have eaten some wild game kill, but if it isn't dressed correctly I don't like it because it tastes too gamey for my tastes. Plus it may end up contaminating the meat.

Not a hunter so I wouldn't know how to do it properly. I'll just let those at the slaughter houses, and butchers to do it for me, though I leave myself open if the supply train is interrupted.

They snatch it up while it’s still warm.

I’m not to the point where I’d want to eat roadkill deer myself but my dogs would have no such qualms.

A half mile before my house, one night, was this huge, beefy doe *just* hit.

By the time I raced that half mile home, grabbed a 50 gallon trash bag to put on the floor of the Magnum and went back, she was just a memory.

You gotta move FAST, here.

[if I had any sense, I would carry a trash bag with me, just in case]

/muh dawgs love meat

:D

FWIW, if the gut sack’s not busted and it hasn’t lain in the heat for more than a half hour, it’s probably fine, just in case you ever need to know that
