What to do with the meat foreign hunter in Wyoming, Idaho and Colorado. Need meat cutters and places to donate

[Mojave]

So an Austrian buddy of mine ended up punching above his weight limit, and has the following tags:

Idaho moose bull
Wyoming deer
Wyoming antelope
Colorado deer
Colorado ewe bighorn

He has the Colorado species sorted as he is going to drop them to some family of mine near Cheyenne.

The Idaho moose he has sorted out as well. A friend who lives in Eastern Washington is going to meet him in the unit and take the meat from that one.

The Wyoming deer and antelope we do not have a solution for, they are hunts in NW Wyoming. The only hunters for the hungry outfit I can find is in Jackson. 350 miles from where he is.

Does anyone have a meat cutter near Sheridan or Buffalo they like. I told him to drop it there and then pick it up after he is done moose hunting. Then he can drop it in Cheyenne on his way back to Denver to fly out.

The antelope hunt in NE Wyoming is October 1, 2, 3.

The deer hunt in the bighorns Wyoming is the 15th through the 23rd of October.

He is a freaking deer ninja. He will fill all these tags. He self guided and hiked into the New Zealand backcountry 15 miles and killed half the forest.

People talk about expert hunters, he is one. Never met a finer hunter than this guy. Just incredible.

Good use of resources, especially Wyomings thriving deer and antelope populations.
He can donate those tags to a Wyoming disabled veteran who’ll eat the meat. Sounds like this deer ninja had killed enough for one lifetime

Jealousy will not get your anywhere. He has never been to the US and has been buying points for10 years to make this happen.

You want tags play the game.

I am a Wyoming native disabled veteran and I did 20 years on active duty. Most veterans hunting programs are started by guys who give tags to their buddies. Same guys get the same tags every year.

Sounds like a game management problem. Can't fault a guy that plays it right, those tags would be sold no matter what.

But personally I wouldn't hunt if I couldn't or wasn't eating the meat.

 

[Mojave]

He doesn't live in the United States, so it is like any of us going to Africa, Europe or whatever.

Call some of the guides in that area. They have probably had more than one client not want the meat. I would bet they know a someone that will take it.

I also believe WY has a game meat donation program.

Does he want my old ladies number too?

 

[Customweld]

Holy cow!! He should pick up a Powerball too! I hope he posts some pictures, he's gonna be busy!

 

[cnelk]

Maybe return the Colorado tags and let someone else use them and the meat?

Sounds like wanton waste by a trophy hunter in an area that can use some relief from such activities

@Mojave
I am in Colorado and will happily come move meat for him in exchange for some/all I can legally have. I'd do the same for the other animals if he is nice.

23‑3‑303. Waste of edible portion of game bird, fish or animal prohibited; abandonment of meat at meat processing plant.



(a) No person shall take and leave, abandon or allow any game bird, game fish, or game animal, except trophy game animal, or edible portion, to intentionally or needlessly go to waste. No person shall knowingly possess any parts of a big game animal or trophy game animal wasted as provided in this subsection.



(b) The failure of any person to properly dress and care for any big game animal or trophy game animal killed by that person, and, if the carcass is reasonably accessible, within forty‑eight (48) hours to take or transport the carcass to the camp of that person, and there properly care for the carcass, is prima facie evidence of a violation of subsection (a) of this section.



(c) No person shall abandon meat from a big game animal, trophy game animal or game bird at a meat processing plant. Unless there is an express agreement between the processing plant and the person providing otherwise, any person leaving meat from a big game animal, trophy game animal or game bird at a meat processing plant for more than forty‑five (45) days is prima facie evidence of a violation of this subsection if written notice of the expiration of time has been attempted by the processing plant in accordance with rules and regulations promulgated by the game and fish department. The owner or operator in charge of any meat processing plant shall immediately report a violation of this subsection to any enforcement personnel of the department. Notwithstanding any other provision of this act, the owner of the meat processing plant is entitled to the proceeds of sale of any meat confiscated under this subsection up to the amount of reasonable processing or storage charges following a conviction under this subsection or a reasonable time after the violation is reported. If the department has been unsuccessful in selling the confiscated meat within thirty (30) days following the reported violation, the department may dispose of the meat as it deems appropriate.



SO PLEASE TELL ME HOW IF HE IS GIVING THE MEAT TO SOMEONE THAT WILL USE IT IS WANTON WASTE OF WILDLFIE?

Sounds like a once in a lifetime trip for him! I hope he enjoys his time in America and everyone isn't rude to him.

Judging by some of these post there will be dill holes everywhere.

Jimmy, I hope you are right.

People get jealous because they don't put the time, money or effort to make things work.

It’s not jealousy it’s just pointing out dudes a trophy hunter who is not a resident and not entitled to just come shoot up whatever he can afford.
Save your red herring bs about the disabled veteran tag program.

You are the one telling him to donate it to disabled veterans.

There is no shortage of disabled veteran hunt programs. If you are a disabled veteran and you don't have a tag, or a free hunt you have zero ability to google.
