But no one is finding roadkill and saying “oh man, I gotta get in on that”

Fun fact, there was enough public outcry in '16 for the state of Washington to amend it's laws and make it legal to harvest roadkill for food.

    Of all the states, I wasn't expecting Washington.

    Alabama? Sure.

    Mississippi? I can see that.

    Georgia? Yeah, ok.

    Washington? Of all the states, WASHINGTON??? Oh god damn....

    I mean if you hit a deer with your car, why let all that venison go?

    My uncle loves to tell a story from his youth about when he was driving his VW bug up in Maine back in the 70s. As he was winding through the woods on a back road, he struck and killed a rather large buck, which is honestly a fairly impressive feat for a 1970-something VW bug. As he's standing there assessing the (thankfully minimal) damage to his car, a game warden pulls up and informs him that, in Maine, if you kill an animal while hunting, you're legally required to haul carcass home with you under threat of jail time.

    And so began his several-hour task of cramming a 6-point buck into the back seat of a 1970-something VW bug. As far as I remember, he was successful, too.
