[QUOTE="labhunter66, post: 136333, member: 1365"] When it comes to found antlers in the field anything that is attached to a skull plate needs to have a permit from the Game & Fish. That's the case for any big game animal - deer, elk, moose, antelope, bighorn sheep etc. Probably won't get a permit for sheep and it may be tough for elk/moose and almost certainly no permit will be issued if it appears the animal didn't die of natural causes. The couple wardens I know will pretty much always issue permits for what appear to be natural deaths but get little hesitant when it appears otherwise. Apparently there are documented cases of people big game and leaving it, hiding it and coming back well after the season and wanting permits for "found" antlers. Just recently saw an article on a massive bighorn sheep found dead in British Columbia by a firefighter and the head was confiscated for the same reason so it's not just North Dakota that looks at things that way.
