The program would issue free permits to anyone who wants to take the animal they killed on the road home to eat. More than 20,000 deer alone are hit on California roadways each year.

You may not be a fan of putting the animal you accidentally ran over earlier on your dinner table, but many states allow you to do so.

California may be the latest.Senate Bill 395 was among a handful of other bills Gov. Gavin Newsom signed into law last week and opens the door for a killed-turned-grilled kind of dinner. The bill, brought forth by Sen. Bob Archuleta, authorizes the state's Fish and Game Commission to develop a pilot program which, through the help of an online portal, would issue free permits to anyone who wants to take the animal they killed on the road home to eat.

Roadkill is fair game under new law 01:46Most states, like California's rules, provide provisions on which animals may be taken for personal use and clarify whether a permit is required.Montana's law, for example, allows free salvage permits to be issued only for deer, elk, moose and antelope that were killed by cars.Michigan, who adopted its roadkill legislation in 2014, listed feedback received on the bill, including exposing residents to potential health risks.

Wild guess that people who would be interested in eating their roadkill weren't overly concerned about having proper permits in the first place.

A “permit” for a road kill? Seriously?GavinNewsom 😂😂😂😂

So people can use guns and cars to kill deers now? What do the deers get?

Although some people might not have the money to support themselves and their families with meals, deer roadkill can easily have disease and parasites. If it’s been out for a while it will become more and more dangerous to eat. CGScivics

Do you think we'll see a rise in the sale of bull bars?

It’s not really a “program”... they’re called deer tags, issued by LE.

Why does Californians need a permit for that

sanjayuvacha civilisation. Exhibit.

watch the deer deaths by car go up 5x.

they want to make sure the get red from the homies by feeding them a road kill but there is a heavy medical bill will come with that good luck only in CA the golden raten state

I'm not a hunter and I don't claim to know much about wildlife. However, I was always told that this is not supposed to be done. Can someone explain how this works?

Every hunter knows : A deer hit by a vehicle, and killed, usually has complete thoracic damage internally. The intestines rupture, sending toxins throughout. The spleen, colon, stomach...all destroyed and leaking... I wouldnt advise it...

That’s a slippery slope.

Meet.

Move the deer somewhere else, no matter how many there are...to a remote area..

Vegans gonna hate..

Eat a deer you hit with a carwtf

Who is gonna the first guy who puts a salt lick in his driveway?
