Now this may sound pretty funny to most hunters. But I live in a semi rural area. I have garbage and compost pick up. I have a tiny green bin for meat and kitchen scraps. So when I butchered a deer a few days ago I did the responsible thing and called up the works department and asked if it was ok to put the hide, bones and scraps out in the green bin or near the green bin for the stuff that wouldn't fit for pick up on my usual day.
Well you would have thought I was asking to dispose of nuclear waste. The person was perplexed. Geez, I'd never heard of that before. I don't know what to say. Let me call you back after I find out. Well a half hour later she called back and told me to take it to the neareast waste transfer station. So I did, because I also had some other stuff to dump (fortunately). So being the "green" person I was when I got to the transfer station and being the responsible person I am (or possibly stupid) I told them what I had to dispose . Well when I told them I had some hide and scraps I was advised that they DON'T accept that type of waste. Of course telling them that I was advised by their department to bring it there accomplished nothing. Yes I know I could have kept my mouth shut and just dumped it with all my garbage. No one would have known who dumped it.
So I came back home with the hide and scraps...yes I thought of dumping the stuff on the side of the road but just couldn't get myself to do it because ...what if it was my property....you know...how would I feel.
So after you rural guys get up off the floor from laughing so hard...this is just a little reminder of what us law abiding city type folks have to deal with.
Anybody need a buckskin with a 12 GA hole in it?

Thanks for reading LOL
 
Sometimes you have to drive halfway across gods green earth to get to a hide depot, and if you are lucky after driving all that way they might take the hide.

What i do is i go back to the bush where i shot the deer and dig a deep hole, then i bury the contents. If you are into coyote hunting they make good bait piles.

The driving distances make these a non option. I guess I'll just cut it all up in small portions and eventually I'll fit it in the green bin.
 
Heheheheheheehehehehe, oh city folks how you make me laugh. Me hides go to the collection box in town, get entered in a draw, the bones get thrown to the dogs to make them happy or put in the field to bait coyotes for some fun.:D:cheers:
 
Years ago I had an incident at work where a guy put bear bones in a garbage bag and dumped them on a side street in toronto. Was almost a murder investigation...
 
I'm also an "urban redneck". I recently had my greenbin "rejected" because of a goose carcass - gawd knows what they'd do with a deer hide/head! lol! If possible I hang and skin before I leave the hunting area -leave the whole shootin' match, deer ticks and all, right where I shot it - yotes and crows have it all gone in a few days. In one case this didn't work because of heavy rain starting, so I tossed the deer in the car and took it right to my butcher's garage - shelled out the extra 25$ to him for skinning.
-DW
 
Buried a few carcasses deep in the backyard when there weren't any other options. Others went into the garbage... which I don't see a problem with because it'll just decompose in a landfill... not like we reuse bones, and not like it's polluting the landfill...

I keep my hides though, so not a whole lot left to bury usually.
 
Wow.
Few days ago wife and I were boning out a deer on the tailgate of the 1/2 ton on the street in front of our house....You know, so we could use the garden hose to wash the blood off and it'd run down the street.

So anyway, we're about 10 minutes into it and I realize we're drawing a crowd and this may have been a bad idea....








Cause all the neighbors want to know when we're going to smoke some sausage, and can they have some. I kid you not. Gonna have to shoot another deer just to have some jerky. :D

I"m not sure I want to know what a green bin is...possibly someplace the green party members go to when they eventually realize they've wasted their entire life, sorta like a looney bin? :p

Alternately, last yr when I dropped off a moosehead sans skullcap off at the local "mall" (dump), I was nearly mobbed..."Where'd you get it, what wmu; gonna make any sausage?"

You know, standard stuff. You urban guys keep telling yourselves us rural folks are a bunch of hicks and stay there, we'll stay here. :cool: :p

Here's the famous green bin used in some surrounding GTA areas. Huge isn't it? And racoon proof too......just as pigs can fly.

If I butchered a deer from my truck tailgate I'm quite sure I would be contacting you now from the local Regional Police detention centre. Ontario you know.
 
We cut our deer at the camp so we have a pile of bones and hides there from years gone by as well as the current year. Usually the raccoons, coyotes, and the farmer's dog clean them up in short order and there is very little left behind.
 
Left over from moose

I'm really glad I live in a rual setting. Most bones from the moose are cut and go in the freezer, throughout the following winter and summer my Akita and golden retriver have some pretty good treats.
There are both healthy dogs.
