[QUOTE="DRC458, post: 3298574, member: 530"] It has never made any sense to me. [USER=25086]@Sampson[/USER] probably has as good a guess as any. I, too, have a friend who was issued a citation several years ago for selling a whitetail mount. I have wondered if it was because there was no requirement to maintain documenation to show the animal was taken legally, i.e. deer tag. But, that doesn't make any sense either. My African trophies had to go through all kinds of scrutinization, i.e. vet inspections, CITES permits, export permits, Customs inspections, etc. (And, they ALL cost money!) However, I could not [B][I]prove [/I][/B]that the mounts hanging on my walls are those [I][B]specific[/B][/I] animals named in all of that paperwork! It seems that it would be a nightmare to confirm. So, hey, just make it [I][B]all[/B][/I] illegal and we don't have to worry about it. Sucks, as far as I'm concerned. AFAIK, there is no prohibition on donating them. So, if my kids don't want them, it is in my will that they will be donated. The state, feds, whomever, have made this way too difficult and muddled! [/QUOTE]
