I know of a few guys that have bought thermal scopes and spotters to use and are taking large numbers of deer out each weekend and it all goes to pet food

Mountain river doesn't do pet food iirc.

They certainly wouldn't be paying 7 bucks a kilo for it if they were.

JoJo will be doing it for the EU market.
We were all in the same group when we were doing venison. They know what they're doing and if there was one bit of taint in those deer they get chucked and the operator loses out.
The standards required these days is miles higher than when we used to take a day and a half to get an animal out for sale when meat shooting.

Can't do paper work? What does that mean?

We knew exactly when and where we were able to hunt. 1080 was never an issue if you were honest.
