It's been posted already that Ontario has extended it's hunt to all day. Given that we have mandatory check in at designated stations they have adapted the rule of checking in on the day of the kill to the next day in the event you get one late.

Here's my question: Since taking the weight has always included full weight, not dressed, it would seem there would be cases where your bird would sit for hours before being cleaned. Now I know with a deer that would not be good but what effect would that have in regards to a bird? Also, if anyone else has a similar requirement for checking in, is there something else done to ensure accurate data while not having to wait to clean your bird?
