A big game animal taken in an open season pursuant to Title 10 V.S.A. §§ 4741, 4743, 4744, Title 10 Appendix §§ 22, 31, and 116 shall immediately be tagged upon being taken into a person's possession. The tag shall be placed on the big game carcass in a location that is open to view. Such tag shall remain on the big game carcass during possession and transportation and until such time that the animal is cut up for consumption.

A person shall not transport parts of a big game animal unless the parts or package containing them are marked with the name and address of the person who killed the big game.

A person may transport into and possess in this state big game legally taken in another state or country provided such person shall retain the tag required to be attached to the carcass by the state or country where taken and mark each package of meat with the name of the person who took the animal, tag number, date, and state or country of origin.
