I don't know what the law is in Wis. but in Ill. no tag needed until the animal is moved. Taking picturew without a tag would be legal here.
as u can see in the pictures the first 2 the buck is in 2 differnt locations, in wisconsin you are supposed to tag the deer before you do anything with it....
[align=left]Deer Tagging Instructions[/align][align=left]1 You must validate the appropriate deer carcass tag immediately upon killing and[/align][align=left]before fi eld dressing or moving the deer by slitting the appropriate date and time.[/align][align=left]Note: An antlerless deer is any deer that does not have any antler of 3 or more[/align][align=left]inches in length. A buck deer is any deer with an antler 3 inches or longer.[/align][align=left]2. Insert a string or similar fastener through the small hole in the middle of the tag[/align][align=left](note: a tab covers the hole) and attach to the deer’s ear or antler. You will need to[/align][align=left]provide your own string or similar fastener to attach the carcass tag to your deer.[/align][align=left]3. After the deer has been tagged, it must be registered at an appropriate registration[/align][align=left]station. Please see the section below on registration.[/align][align=left]4. The carcass and registration tags must remain attached to the deer until butchering.[/align][align=left]The person who killed, tagged or obtained the deer shall retain all tags until the[/align]meat is consumed.
Not to get into an argument but according to the Wis. Regs.you only need to "validate" the tag before field dressing or moving it.
