When hunting in another restricted zone, game susceptible to FMD must not be broken up immediately after the hunt and must not be cut up on the ground. The carcass should be transported in a plastic bag or other biosecure packaging to avoid possible contamination of the environment with potentially infected material.

The carcass should be labelled with an individual number. The following data should be recorded for each animal:

• Date and time of arrival of the carcass at the collection centre
• Area/geographical coordinates where the animal was shot
• Name of the hunter/hunting organisation
• Species, sex, age, weight of the shot animal (or game)
• Visible injuries (if any)
