ARSD 41:06:03:14. Process of abandonment for game left at a wildlife processing facility

A wildlife processing facility and a person who deposits lawfully taken game with the facility for processing may agree upon a period of time following which the facility may consider the game, except a migratory bird, to be abandoned by the person. With the exception of a migratory bird, the facility may distribute abandoned game to any non-profit organization or any charitable organization that distributes food or other services to the needy. At no time may any abandoned game be considered the property of the wildlife processing facility.
