Tips for your big game harvest By J. P. Tanner, Beaverhead County Extension Many of you will be headed to the mountains this hunting season. Proper care of your harvested game is the most impor tant criteria to ensure its value at your table. I would like to take a few minutes to remind you about some steps that can insure proper care of your harvested animal. Now that you have bagged your animal it is important to tag the animal immediately to comply with game laws. Before beginning, make sure your knife is sharp. Then make a small cut at the junction of the head and body to bleed the animal. Cut under the genitals and remove back to the testicles. Cut to the pelvic bone exactly between the hind legs. Make a cut from the pelvis to the breastbone. Be careful not to puncture the stom ach. Pull the entrails free from the cavity. Keep the body cavity clean while dragging game from the field. The carcass needs to be cooled as soon as possible. When skinning the trophy head special care is needed if you want the head to be mounted for your trophy room. The carcass can be hung from either the head or the hind legs for skinning. Begin skinning by making initial cuts. Remove the hide by grasping the skin and pulling hard. If flesh pulls off with the skin, stop pulling and try again after cutting the flesh back. Don’t forget to care for your hide by salting it heavily and rolling it up for storage. Some places will pay top dollar for hides. In doing these few steps you will care for your game animal properly. The programs of the MSU Extension Program are available to all people regardless of race, creed, color, sex, disability, or national origin. Questions should be addressed to the Beaverhead County extension Service at 683-378S or e-mailed to Beaverhead@montana.edu What to do when encountering mountain lions while hunting Big game hunters, who often disguise their human scent and dress in huvter orange and camouflage colors, are likely to encounter a variety of wildlife on the hunt, including mountain lions. Hunters who take note and report these sightings during FWP's post-season hunter harvest surveys, are important participants in ongoing research to learn more about mountain lion populations, their locations and numbers. While many hunters report seeing a mountain lion while hunting, attacks on hunters are nearly non-existent. Seasoned hunters know, if they see a mountain lion, to give it room and allow it to move on. In most cases, if a lion is visible to a hunter it is because the lion didn’t catch the hunter's scent, or camouflage clothing masked the hunter effectively. Here are some additional tips for hunters who may encounter a lion while big game hunting. • Slowly back away while maintaining eye contact • Do not run, do not turn your back. • Be vocal and talk calmly ind regularly. • Appear larger than you are by raising your arms or your jacket above your head.
