That's not exactly how getting the meat off an animal works, it's not as simple as shooting it then just hauling it back to be cut into bits.
The moment you kill the deer, you have to hightail it over to the body and (preferably with a stream nearby) gut the deer to remove the stomach and intestines. Meat can easily spoil if you leave the intestines/stomach in, since they tend to decompose quite rapidly and release all sorts of nasty meat spoiling bacteria into the surrounding tissues. OP has no idea how old the body is, so to err with caution I'd say it's spoiled/ruined.
OP, you're going to need to call someone. A deer is simply too big to simply throw into a pile in your backyard and left to rot, and I wouldn't waste the time digging a large enough hole for one. Call a removal service.

So you're saying that this perfectly good deer that lived its life happily, is no good?

Animals don't die for no reason, you should never eat an animal that has died from an unknown reason.

Depending on how long the deer has been there, the meat might not be good. Since the deer was probably hit by a car, there is a chance that the guts were ruptured, which would ruin the meat even more rapidly then simple rotting.
Besides, field dressing a deer is [I]really[/I] messy work, and I doubt he has a stream or other flowing/body of water to wash himself/the animal with. He could use a hose, but that would be more effort then it's worth.
Do you have any clue how fresh it is?
Deer tastes fucking amazing.

Are you saying... animals are immortal and only die by other causes? Like getting hit by a car, infection and likewise?

what should I do?
Leave it for trash day. :smug:
If the garbage truck even goes to your house, it looks like you live in the middle of nowhere.
Eat it.
S'good.

No I am saying that eating some random dead animal (or person) can be extremely hazardous to your health.

Trust me, you do NOT want to haul a deer into your house, gut it in the bathroom, then clean the meat while disposing of the organs, that would leave a lot of blood in your home.
Also, it's better to be safe then sorry with things like this, deer that are hit by cars don't always die immediately, it could've been hit then stumbled to where it was found by the OP.
Eat it. Venison is good.

yes eat the dead deer you found in your driveway
Dig a hole and bury it
Walk around your neighbourhood dragging the deer along, watch the reaction of the people nearby and post results, preferably in pictures.
Eat it, pussy. :smug: Then upload results to youtube. :3:
Hang it above your front door to show people you mean business.
Behead the deer and mount the head above your fireplace as a trophy.
Might smell a bit though.
Just burn it, really.
That will be the best way, some petrol, perhaps some wood, 30minutes later all gone, just a pile of ash for the wind to blow away.
Nail it to the front of your car.
Call the police department and report a possible road hazard
Put it on your neighbour's property so that they can pay for the removal service.
What happens if you cut it up and throw it into a black trashbag, so they can just remove your trash and this deer.
I suggest cutting off the head in the middle of the neck, all the legs, and maybe split the torso into two.
I see tons of dead deer off on the road. They're normally split in half. The best way to hit a deer is by accelerating.
[QUOTE=BANNED USER;26410147]I forgot who you are supposed to call, but there is a business that deals with dead animal retrieval, you can give them a call and they'll haul it off.[/QUOTE]
Ghostbusters?
thought it was going to be a live deer just chillin in your driveway not giving a fuck about your cars
Deer with it.
Heres what you do. Put it in your trash can and set it up so the head is angled and looking up at you when you open the lid. Then later tonight get your mom/brother/sister to take out the trash and simply wait for the screams.
