I know the laws about not collecting roadkill you've hit yourself although you can pick up the creature the guy in front has dispatched with his front bumper.
Are the laws any different about roadkill in Scotland?
I'm specifically thinking about deer. I frequently pass dead deer on the roads through Glencoe and always think it's such a waste. Are there any regulations preventing me from hoiking one into the back of my car? Bearing in mind that they are rather large and pretty heavy, what about being able to do some butchering by the roadside - obviously being sensitive to passing drivers? Could I just hack off a nice haunch of venison?
OH is never impressed when I start waving the Swiss Army knife in the direction of the dead deer we pass.......
