[Sca-cooks] Re: deer and turkeys

[Lady Elisabetta Maldestro]

Just got back from vacation, and I have been reading the e-mail most 
current first, so my apologies if this has been answered....

Wild turkeys-
I'm not sure if they are endangered, but they are conserved, and 
depending on the state, shooting them off season is a hefty fine. The 
National Wild Turkey Federation list each hunting season and bag limit 
per state and Canadian provence: http://www.nwtf.org/in_your_state/?
desturl=/in_your_state/hunt_guide.php 

As for Deer, there are also deer farms, some allow hunters and some 
prepare the meat for you- like Musicon Farm, who breeds fallow deer for 
kosher vension (www.koshervenison.com).

I'm more concerned with how the meat was prepared during slaughter then 
how it was killed. I have never hunted, but I have fished, and killing 
is the easy part. Preparing the carcess takes much more skill and 
education.
