Where to put the tag? I\'ve been told by the CPW to put your tag on the quarter that has evidence of sex and you don\'t have to tag an animal until it\'s at your camp or vehicle. Evidence of sex must be naturally attached to a quarter, not just detached and placed with the meat.
The license needs to be signed and punched immediately upon kill, then detach the carcass tag.
The carcass tag does not have to attached until one of the following happens:
1- The meat is in a motorized vehicle
2- In camp
The carcass tag can be removed once the meat is processed for human consumption, and the EoS can also be removed at that time.
If you decide to process your meat while in camp, I would be very, very careful....

We process in camp. we tagged and bagged like stated above than cut up and froze in camp, keeping the tag handy (in my wallet). How else would one be \"careful\"?
No, but I helped do the checking once!\"cnelk\" said:Have you ever been checked after you have processed an elk in camp?
I was riding with the warden one day when we stopped to check out a camp. On the ground were three elk heads and skins and also four deer heads and skins. When we ask where all the meat was, one of the hunters pointed to a 16 ft. enclosed trailer. We were amazed when we walked in that trailer. It was a complete butcher shop on wheels with two large freezers, butchering tools and three vacuum sealers. When we opened the freezers we found each one stuffed with processed and wrapped meat. All of the tags were taped to the inside of each freezer lid.
I\'m not sure which was better: Seeing such an organized operation, or seeing the look on the wardens face as he tried to figure the situation out. He finally just shook his head, walked out, got in his truck, and we drove off. True Story!

Nope, never been checked ever.
Like WW said, even tho there may not be any illegal activity when the elk is processed in camp, the officer will have to determine how much to investigate because that is the perfect opportunity for a poaching operation.
I have been checked by wardens in camp and they are very thorough. I can imagine that they would be even more thorough coming into a camp that has a meat processing center.
I would definitely document the operation with photos.
