I don't know how much money I've made in picking up roadkill animals over the years - I can be confident it's thousands of dollars though. Fur is fur, if the hide isn't damaged by the vehicle strike and the animal hasn't started to rot yet, I'll pick them up.

Same risk applies for rabies and parasites as any furbearer - doesn't matter if it's roadkill, trapped, or hunted.

It's really common, however, to have a lot of vehicle damage to the fur, and it doesn't take long for them to start to rot such the hair pulls/falls out really bad, especially on the bottom side where they were laying.
