How to field dress a deer, elk or moose in a chronic wasting disease management zone.

All hunters who harvest a deer, elk or moose in a CWD Management Zone are REQUIRED to have their animals tested for CWD by depositing the head at a designated drop off site.

Here's a map of drop-off site locations. 

Carcasses or any part of a deer, elk, or moose harvested in Units 14 or 15 may not be transported out of those units except quarters or deboned meat that does not include brain or spinal tissue, and edible organs that do not include brains. To see other exceptions go to CWD rules webpage.  Note: More hunting units could be added to Idaho’s CWD Management Zone if the disease is detected in other areas.
