Taking of Game

It is illegal to:

• Take or possess any deer or wild animal that has been lawfully obtained by someone else without having that person’s consent.
• Not immediately kill all game taken and make it part of the daily bag.
• While afield, possess game killed by another unless accompanied by the original harvester.
• Possess game taken by another unless able to provide the registration confirmation number, name and address or customer ID of the holder of the harvest authorization.
• Gift game to any person while afield. All game given as a gift remains counted toward the daily bag limit of the holder of the harvest authorization.
• Carelessly waste game. The hunter must make every reasonable effort to retrieve all game that is killed or crippled. Until such effort is made, the game shall be included in the daily bag limit.

Note: This rule does not allow hunters to trespass without permission of the landowner nor to shoot game beyond legal shooting hours.
