bojangles Report post Posted October 31, 2018 I’d call a few taxidermist and see what they’d offer. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

25-06 Report post Posted October 31, 2018 I thought people sold them all the time. And only the meat was illegal to sale. Heck if people can sale antlers why not a hide? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bojangles Report post Posted October 31, 2018 Wow, didn’t know selling hides was illegal. How do taxidermist get away with it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AZkiller Report post Posted October 31, 2018 I don't think you can sell anything unless it has had something done to it like tanning to make leather. The mounts are considered artwork. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brademan76 Report post Posted October 31, 2018 Regardless of legality, do you really want to start your daughters hunting career off with the idea that animals or animal parts are a commodity? R12-4-305. Possessing, Transporting, Importing, Exporting, and Selling Carcasses or Parts of Wildlife 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AZkiller Report post Posted October 31, 2018 Well according to ars 17-371 I is wrong. You can sell all parts of legally taken game except for meat. Sorry guys. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

R12-4-305. Possessing, Transporting, Importing, Exporting, and Selling Carcasses or Parts of Wildlife Ummm.... YES. We are from farming background in Iowa. There is a whole Commodities Market for animals and animal parts. And it is legal. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brademan76 Report post Posted October 31, 2018 Wildlife, not livestock. Guess I should never assume someone is intelligent enough to pick up my meaning, shame on me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sandy Report post Posted October 31, 2018 The State of Arizona touts wildlife as a commodity all the time. Hunting is a huge sector of the state's economy. We all contribute to it. Every license you buy, every tag you pay for all goes toward purchasing an animal from the state. Don't insult my intelligence. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then you should be intelligent enough to understand that the monies you're referring to are used for wildlife management and conservation (and yes, also the associated overhead). But if you'd prefer the simple sale/purchase of a game animal, there are more of those places popping up all the time. Good luck with your daughter's (or your?) sale.
