Wildlife Wednesday: Can I keep this skull I found? Picking up skulls, antlers, feathers and animal parts

CLICK HERE TO JOIN THE PRESENTATION

Join us for a free virtual presentation with guest speaker, Riley Woodford!

Can you pick up and keep that animal part you found? The path to the answer may be convoluted, but the bottom line is generally simple- yes you can, or no you can’t. As you will discover, it depends on what the animal is, who manages it, where you find the part, and who you are.

Riley Woodford is the statewide information officer for the Division of Wildlife Conservation at the Alaska Department of Fish & Game. He is the editor of Alaska Fish & Wildlife News and produces the Sounds Wild! radio program. In pursuit of skulls and bones he has gleaned shrew skulls from owl pellets, cooked brown bear and wolf heads, and salvaged two smelly dead humpback whales.

This event will be recorded for future viewing and will be accessible on our YouTube page.
