I don't know why madtom even came on!
I don’t know why he did either
Don’t you think those shaded harvest maps would have to be based on GPS....nevermind.

Talking now about tagging or not tagging game in the field, I'm very surprised that any state would relax their rules on tagging since through the years most have been very strict with Montana even citing the guy several years ago because he didn't "immediately" tag his bull elk even though he did before it was moved from the kill site. That actually ended up in a big flap that got the law changed the following season with "immediately" being removed. IMHO as long as the person has the proper license/tag and follows the law by using that tag when he kills an animal it was issued for it seems a little ridiculous to require it to be attached as long as he has it with him up to and through transport to his home or a processor.
AFAIK in Wyoming tagging usually refers to signing, dating, notching and separating your license right after the kill. You don't necessarily need to affix it to the carcass. Also there is NO VALID EXCUSE for failure to tag.
"Paper tag:
Validate your tag by writing in ink the harvest date/time and Wildlife Management Unit where the harvest occurred. Place paper tag in a plastic bag to protect it from the elements and attach it to the carcass.
Electronic tag (cell phone or tablet):
Validate your tag electronically with an app that will work even when offline. Then take the confirmation number from the app plus your name, ODFW ID, Date of Birth, harvest date and write it on anything that will stand up to the elements (like duct tape, trail ribbon or piece of paper in plastic bag), affix it to the animal like a traditional tag and keep it attached to the carcass in transport, as you would a paper tag."
For me when I see a big game animal being hauled through our town I look for the tag. Maybe it's not always visible but I still like to look...I suppose I should have expected the bureaucrat instinct to erase a chance at efficiency. Bummer.
