Not trying to be insulting... but if I didn't kill the critter, only found it...?
But I notice there is a big hole in your post, RWJ... that would be keeping roadkill vension. If justice were truly blind, anyone hitting a critter - whether they keep it or not - would be violating this section... as it is written, IMO, allows for the amibiguity that the State thrives on.
IIRC, one can apply for a permit to keep found roadkill game. I think it is a permit PER CRITTER, not a permit to be a road cleaner... lol
If you are looking for coyote bait, pick up deer carcasses... you need to phone them in, but there are no fees associated with it.
