This has become a big issue now and even more so with inter-state travel. I’m hunting Montana this year and if I kill an elk, I’d like to do a euro mount. How do I stay legal?
The rules in most states say I need all flesh removed from a skull cap. So does that mean it’s illegal to keep an intact skull for a euro mount?
In a CWD pamphlet I’ve read, it recommends that you do not cut thru the spine or any other nervous tissue with a saw due to cross contaminating reasons. But they don’t give any kind of guidance on how to deal with the skull.
I tried emailing Montana F and G CWD department with these same questions and got no reply back. That was about 6 weeks ago.
So what’s everyone doing in this situation?
