ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) - Billy Dickerson Jr. and Cody Dyer trudged through the deep snow and dense woods with one mission: retrieve a moose carcass that had become roadkill.

They dragged the dead animal to their pickup truck and hauled it to Dickerson’s house, where it would be gutted and eventually sent on its way to the plates of poor Alaskans.

It’s an act repeated hundreds of times each year in Alaska, where workers salvage moose roadkill and donate the meat to charities. Alaska has the nation’s biggest moose population, and vehicles and trains here kill about 820 of the big-antlered creatures each year.

"It gives more folks a chance for free meat. A lot of people can’t afford to buy steaks or even hamburger, at least judging from the calls I get," said Eileen Brooks, the roadkill program coordinator for the Anchorage region and the Matanuska-Susitna Borough, who is known among colleagues as Queen of the Gut Pile.

Other states have roadkill programs, but primarily for smaller animals like elk and deer. Maine is among the few states with moose and gives motorists first right to roadkills, then donates unwanted animals to the needy.

Alaska Fish and Wildlife Protection Troopers coordinate the Alaska program, which requires that the meat be given away to anyone who asks. Not-for-profit groups, including churches, sign up to take turns collecting the roadkill remains.

they found two deer and spent three days preparing the carcasses in their campus-area house; the hide from one of them is still hanging in the basement, waiting to be tanned.

Three days? Two of us turn a deer into serving portions in about four hours using a couple of knives, sharpening stone, hacksaw, freezer paper and tape. We could do it in less, but we're fussy about keeeping the fell, tallow and deer hair off the meat.

Please note that the same bachelor's child in the Ohio Game Department is really saying Now, he is quick to claim state (and therefore his agency's) ownership of all game.


But when a deer causes an accident, then "the deer done it" and the state assumes no responsibility for any damages done by "their" deer.

And when some "re-introduced" predator like a wolf, bear, or cougar attacks someone - watch the GamePerson quickly claim the state is NOT responsible.

The GamePerson is spouting a line BS worthy of CBS.

Filet knives (for fishing) work really well for boning the meat, and are relatively cheap as well...

Any deer hunteers here? Stupid question, right? I thought I read where you have to remove an organ from a deer right after you kill it or else it will release a hormone or something that poisons the meat.

Oh phooey. When Mr D finds roadkill, he hauls it on top of the Jeep, hangs the carcass to gut it, butchers it. . .and our three Dobies eat 'high on the, er, deer' for the duration.

No... but the service is pretty fast. Remember, everything on the menu has been pre tenderized and pre grilled.
