Disguising Gm The game commission wishes to remind hunters that it is ill egal to disguise in any manner the sex or identity of game birds and animals while in the field or while returning home from a hunt. Ki The law states that it is unlaw ful to mutilate or have in posses sion the carcass or skin of any game animal in any manner so as to disguise the sex. It is also unlawful to have in possession the plucked carcass in any man-, ner so as to disguise the species and kind of game bird in the field or on the way home. Hunters should retain some kind of identifying features of the bird or game so there will be no question as to its sex or kind. The head or antlers are sufficM ent identification while in camp or 4n transit. With game birds it is advisable to leave the legs and feet or the unplucked head and neck attached to the bird. Hunters may pluck or skin the rest of the bird if they io desire. Leaving the head and feet attach ed gives positive identification as to species and sex.
