What happens with the deer that are harvested during managed hunts?
When a deer is harvested in a managed hunt, it becomes the hunter’s responsibility to see that the deer is processed and consumed in an appropriate fashion. Usually, this entails one or more of the following: the hunter keeps the deer him/herself, and has it butchered or butchers the meat him/herself for personal use, the hunter butchers the deer and gives the meat to family members or acquaintances, or the hunter drops the deer off at a butcher shop to be donated to a charitable organization such as Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry (FHFH).
