If you find an unintentionally dead captured animal in the trap or need to send an unintentionally captured animal due to serious injury, you can remove it and place it near the trap. There is no legal obligation for you to keep it, and you are not even allowed to possess it to bring it back to your vehicle without CED`s permission. If the fishing or hunting season is open to the species in an AMU, you can keep a dead fur carrier on the roads of that ALU. The requirements for owning street fur carriers are the same as for capture and hunting. For example, if you find a bobcat, killed on the street in an area where the bobcat season is open, you may possess it if you have a hunting or fishing license, but you will need to fill out a furry pet owner label and have the fur sealed. 6. a.
