K44's #472 post is best advice. If you take back all the scrapes/ bones for the dog, you will always account for the entire animal. We cut our own elk/moose, I sometimes think the dogs get the most of the animal.
... If space is an concern consider buying a dedicated freezer and a stand alone temp controller ($250 + $50). The controller will let you run the freezer at 2C while you process quarters into roasts, and grind. When everything is packed up, remove the controller and let everything freeze solid. Poor man's walk in cooler. This hack has saved me on a number of warm weather harvests when leaving things to hang in the garage was out of the question...
Do you have any photos or setup images (even internet images) of this? Sounds like a nice 'hack' as you put it.
Thanks for the replies everyone. I have found some "evidence" and spoke to F&W and they are conducting an investigation. I will post more information when able.
