Which part of the game is illegal to waste?

  1. The hide

  2. The antlers

  3. The head

  4. The meat

The correct answer is: The meat

It is illegal to waste the meat of a harvested game animal in Pennsylvania. This is because utilizing the meat honors the animal and ensures that the harvest is not wasted. By consuming the meat, hunters are also respecting the wildlife they pursue and following ethical hunting practices. Harvesting game solely for trophies or other parts while disregarding the meat goes against the principles of fair chase and responsible hunting.
