Hey Everyone,
I am heading towards Fairview Alta in a few weeks for a multiple species hunt. I am going to be hunting Elk for a few days.
Today I called a BC wildlife officer regarding CWD and bringing an animal back to British Columbia. She said she needed to contact a CO for more information.
She basically told me I may need to deposit the head at an Alberta Deposit spot, which is fine I knew that.
Then she said that the animal had to be processed before coming back to BC. All soft tissues needed to be taken off. Am I correct to assume that I can not quarter the animal because the spinal cord would still be intact?
The area is 526 and based on this photo I don't believe it falls under mandatory testing.

Thank you all for the help
