"If you will not drink the water, why would you want to eat something soaked in it" was a quote from a butcher that I took a moose to one time. That meat was wet, but from snow - The quote has stuck with me though. I did not have a good answer for it then, and I still don't some 20 years later. I think if it is wrapped in plastic all should be fine. Sometimes you have to improvise. Cooling ASAP by any means available is high priority.


A true sportsman counts his achievements in proportion to the effort involved and fairness of the sport. - S. Pope
