Come along to the amazing Summer Moot (21st July - 2nd August), a festival of bushcrafting and camping in a beautiful woodland PLEASE CLICK HERE for more information.
I asked our rangers, while I was working with the FC - at least here, all they do is gut and trim the beast, then stick it in cold storage awaiting collection from the contracted dealer. They take the whole thing away, including the skins. Different divisions may have different contracts though.
Friend of mine is A Surrey Wildlife Trust Ranger. Get lots of good advice about where to find stuff in the woods like mushrooms and the like. Still won't tell me where I can go camping without being caught though.
You seem to want to misrepresent what I wrote. I wrote "Did you see some id?". As it turns out, the answer to my question was in the affirmative. That's all there is to it.
I did not write "Did you ask for any ID?" and I did not write anything even remotely like "I advise you to...."
Please try not to be so cranky, there was no need for any of this.
The Forestry Commission employ three types of ranger:
Wildlife Rangers - who basically shoot deer !
Community and Education Rangers - who run events and activities, lead walks, talks and school groups etc
and Conservation Rangers - who monitor the species and ecology of the forest so that forest operations do not cause too much disturbance.

Couple of deer shot by Rangers (not archers!) on our Archery range during the last few months (FC land). One had been hit by a car and was dragging itself around on three broken legs, ouch.
