Why dress wild game

You MUST dress wild game. You may not know what this means. It means to clean or disembowel the animal. If you don't, the meat will be useless. The fore mentioned answer is for field dressing. Complete dressing includes the above plus removal of the hide and head. If the entrails are left in an animal the bacteria in the bowel and other organs will infect the meat and ruin it. If the temperature is high you will need to keep it cool. But you do not want an un-processed animal (not cut up for consumption) to freeze if at all possible as this to cause the meat to taste strange
