I found an old turkey skull near my hunting spot. Is that a good or bad sign? [sad]

bad sign for the turkey!

It's good luck! Tonight you have to put it under your pillow and the Turkey Fairy will leave you a nice suprise!

bad sign for the turkey!

I got a good chuckle out of that one!

Here's a picture of the turkey skull I found:

Did you clean it up at all? It looks pretty clean.

I don't meant to highjack the thread here drag, but maybe somebody could answer a question on this for me. Is it legal to possess the body parts of an animal you didn't kill (skull, feathers, etc)? As an example, if you're caught with the skull or feathers of a bald eagle, blue heron, bobcat, or some other protected species, can you be fined? I find cool things in the woods all the time but leave them where they are for fear of being ticketed if caught with it.

i take everything i find..sheds, skulls, whatever. F it. if they wanna fine me let em. me taking a skull out of the forest is not gonna destroy animal kingdom. what is left on private property i consider my right to do with. the state should use their time to enforce laws worth enforcing..not stupid crap like that.

I keep whatever I find as well! I cut antlers off dead bucks on the side of the road too! I know it's against the law but oh well...Why waste them?
