Thread: meat questions

ok in the east of canada brown bear and wolf aren't really a problem to let the quarter hang. but depending of temperature, flies could be a problem!
we ordinary just let our moose hanging outside the camp to free air, if the temp is right (october average 10c day 0c night)
but since you all talk about covering if hanging is choose... it have to be protect it, is a hunting meatbag enough for coverage/protection? (like socks style and not the one Makros post)

I'll hunt on public land and don't plan to be near a hut. And Red deer is my main goal.
I do prefer to let hang a night so the quarter are easier to carry but my ability to hang it, problem free, will dictate how it goes.
if butcher don't like skin, no problem with that, I know how heavy is the skin lol and will take this weight of my shoulder happily
@Barry the hunter, your question is only relative to your "hunting" situation. When you have 1 moose for four hunter permit, only male, with minimum size antler or deer, also male only, minimum antler size to, and all animal have to be register to a registered station with the whole animal by law. You do what you have to do and you try to keep every ounces of meat you get from it.

I do understand it won't be the case in my trip to NZ, but I will try to bring as much meat from my trip as possible.

so only one butcher option?
Google map was right about butcher LOL
I guess I'll have to make some road trip to drop it...
