Before going afield to hunt, it is always wise to review the proper ways to handle and transport wild meat. Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks encourages hunters to use safe practices when handling wild meat in the field: 

• do not harvest animals that appear ill or are acting abnormally.
• wear rubber gloves when field dressing game.
• minimize contact with animal fluids, brain and spinal tissues.
• wash hands and instruments thoroughly after field dressing or processing.
• cook all meat thoroughly before consuming.
