There's also nothing wrong with hunting for meat. My family has been living off the two doe I harvested around Thanksgiving. That old boy needs to move back up north There’s nothing wrong with this.

Can you imagine though, if the temperature rose above 45? Well, I guess if it was cold enough outside it might be OK. Can you imagine though, if the temperature rose above 45?

I usually cover the animal with a smaller blanket I always keep in back of my SUV. This keeps the treehuggers (while driving their little kids) from giving me a one fingered salute. This year was different. My deer was a 5.5 year or older, 155 class 10 pointer, w/ a 45 inch chest. He stuck out both sides of the blanket. The rack was very visible, but I hid the field-dressed slit with the blanket. There are several stoplights between my hunting area and my home. I got many, many thumbs up on the way home, and one mom who rolled down her window and asked if I was trying to keep the deer warm. Really!! I transport my deer this way all the time.

And yes culling or "meat hunt" like the guy said is good for the area. It keeps the population of Deer managable as well as good quality for the other ones to thrive.

Not only is that the way they are transported in TX, but all over the United States. Looks like there are 2 deer on the hitch-haul and probably 2 hunters in the vehicle. If the deer were harvested legally, then I am not sure about the oddity you are referring to? the purpose of quartering the game is usually when you are in the field and have to get the animal back to the base camp (on foot)or if you plan on being in the field after that and skin and quarter and ice down in coolers(to then be transported to the processor). Your explanation of "Meat Hunt" is misrepresented and distasteful in itself. Maybe you should try explaining to your 8 year old in a tasteful way about the conservation/management behind the harvesting of any wildlife! By the way...trying to keep up with a vehicle on the interstate and snapping pictures does not seem to be in the best interest of safety for you or your 8 year old daughter! Just my 2 cents.
