You can transfer deer from Mississippi to Louisiana as long as you don't have the head or spine. Quartered deer are acceptable.



As PSA below are the new rules for MS LINK



However, hunters may bring the following into Mississippi:



Meat from cervids that has been completely deboned.

Antlers, antlers attached to cleaned skull plates or cleaned skulls where no tissue is attached to the skull.
Cleaned teeth.

Finished taxidermy and antler products.

Hides and tanned products.

Any portions of white-tailed deer originating from the land between the Mississippi River levees in Arkansas.

Did you bring full skull or just horns back? How did you get all material off?


Brought full skull with horns attached. (doing a Euro-mount)

Cut the hide off the head and drill a hole in the base of the skull with a paddle bit. clothes hanger/wire, knife and a garden hose.

Looks like (as been mentioned here) that La and Ms have a little different rules.

If crossing INTO Ms from another state the deer needs to be completely deboned with an exception made for a well-cleaned skull.


If crossing INTO La then just the spine needs to not be present and head either removed or skulls well-cleaned.

it is a prion based disease. if you dump a carcass the prions can remain in the soil and infect other deer for years. They are trying to cut down on the amount of offal that gets dumped.

The most serious threat from CWD is it's potential to jump to humans. It is the same type of disease as BSE (mad cow) and i've read that primates have been infected with it in lab settings. If it jumps to humans then deer will become a public safety threat and hunting as we know it will cease to exist.
