Yes Mike, many times F&W will allow you to keep the critter but it’s entirely at their discretion and you have no right to keep it. Incidental catches, caught out of season, found dead wildlife (even roadkill deer) belong to the Crown. There is no recourse if they decide that you can’t keep it because you have no right to it.
