There is no Maryland state regulation or law on wanton waste, there is however a Federal statute that applies to the wanton waste of waterfowl. Wanton waste is the failure to attempt to retrieve and/or the waste of W/F after taking. The federal statute applies to migratory birds only..there is no rule that outlaws wanton waste of non-migratory critters i.e. deer, upland birds, turkeys etc. There should be and I believe MD sportsman should pressure the legislature to enact a law that pertains to wanton waste of state wildlife.
