I had one on the Kenai make persistent noises about citing me on the "antlers coming out last" rule when my wife picked up the skull plate/ 10" forks from my yearling kill ...
An ADF&G bigshot, recently retired, got whacked for that with caribou or some such several years ago as I recall. I'm sure the dogs wonder why they are expected to eat the required "evidence of sex" we leave "naturally attached" until we get meat home. We can leave the antlers in the field in the fall. Winter is an antlered only season which means, I suppose, that we have to bring the hardware home.
