eating deer meat
#2

I think it depends on how much meet was afacted... If I felt the meet didn't spoil, then I would just cut off that hind quarter and take the rest.. Temps here have been to warm to think the meet might be ok on a wounded un-gut deer

If the meat has not spoiled just cut out where the critter was a chewin. Give yourself a large margin for error. I have done this with a bear I had to run off once to take back a deer I left overnight in freezing temps. That was 15+ years ago and I am fine.

You would be best served by contacting the CDC about this. I too, have cut out a hind quarter that got chewed on overnight while hanging in cold temps. However, I'm not sure how much risk there is in doing so. Authorities would/should know the risk.
