Exporting Game Meat
Hi,
I am seeking advice on transporting wild game from Canada to the US via airplane. I am hosting my brother in law for elk hunting this season, and he is traveling up from the states (East Coast). If we are lucky enough to harvest an elk, how does one go about transporting some of meat out of the country?
1. I looked at the regulations, and there doesn't seem to be any export permits required, just that the hunter accompanies the package and has the valid licenses in hand. Anyone have experience with this?
2. In terms of the physical transportation- do you just freeze the meat and put it into big coolers? Assume it wont have any issue holding the temperature for ~20 hours of transportation.
All suggestions appreciated.
Thank you!
