Great question! Yes people do get road kill bear, husband said he seen one the other day. We have three types of bears in Alaska, black, brown, and polar. The most common for road kill is black bear, really the only one they do. You can’t eat a brown bear if it’s awake. Polar is protected.
Some people can get caribou, but that’s about it.
We see porcupine on the side of the road a lot.

That would make for prickly eating...

Hahaha, yeah. It’s actually quite gamy, shockingly so!
It has to be cut into very spall pieces and brined for several days.

A lot of work for little returns. Give me the moose!
